Hi All, I need some help with configuring Xorg server cause it works only with 'vesa' driver (FreeBSD 12 + KDE5 desktop + HD6670).
I've installed drm-kmod and added kld_list="/boot/modules/radeonkms.ko" to rc.conf.
I also switched driver in xorg.conf from 'vesa' to 'radeon', but after that xorg can't start: log shows that Xorg can't open radeon driver, but kldstat shows it.

Also note that during configuration Xorg -configure lists only vesa, scfb, modesetting drivers.
And I have totally same story with Intel driver.

The AMD Radeon HD 6670 (TURKS) is supported by the radeon(4) FreeBSD base driver.

Unload previous radeon driver, load the base driver manually kldload /boot/kernel/radeonkms.ko, execute kldstat, check for radeonkms.ko and radeonkmsfw_TURKS_xxx.ko

Don't create a xorg.conf file, unless automatic configuration fails, use multiple files in /usr/local/share/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/(see handbook). Create there a radeon.conf file, set
Code: 
Section "Device"
     Identifier "Card0"
     Driver    "radeon"
EndSection
Disable other xorg configuration files, test the setting, execute startx.

If all goes well, delete graphics/drm-kmod, set in /etc/rc.conf
Code: 
kld_list="radeonkms"
