Thank you. The 5.0 driver allows my RX590 to work! I am only having problems now with the fan speed, as it appears the GPU fans are spinning at near full speed, creating too much noise.
A little clean-up for the instructions is needed, as there are some problems with the link. The direct download for the file is:
https://github.com/FreeBSDDesktop/kms-drm/archive/drm-v5.0-fbsd12.1.zip
You will also need to download the firmware and install it.

A problem with following the instructions above, about installing drm-kmod from packages is that if you later on simply runpkg upgrade
, it will overwright the updated drivers.
