Resolving a crash/reboot

You are doing good ! Keep it up.

When you are finished you are going to find FreeBSD is a MUCH easier system to use and maintain than Linux.

A lot of us (including me) are also long time Linux users as well... so we know :cool:

Good work !

I ran my fileserver on freebsd for a couple of years..but I never messed with bluetooth, wireless, or graphics adapters there ;0 I'm unix competent.

Ah good point, I can load it w/o a crash. I can't unload it ;) I'll reboot, check it, and edit this post.
Here's what dmesg shows sucessfully loaded:
drmn0: successfully loaded firmware image 'amdgpu/psp_13_0_7_sos.bin'
drmn0: successfully loaded firmware image 'amdgpu/psp_13_0_7_ta.bin'

dbarron, the gpu firmware loaded all okay, do you have any drm related message there?

If not, try this:
  1. disable sddm (assuming that your crash is on SDDM) and use ly (see https://codeberg.org/fairyglade/ly)
  2. if you do reach ly/sddm, try to start the wayland KDE session
  3. if that fails try the X11 KDE session
  4. if that fails try another DE on X11 (here you can just do startx) and wayland (maybe sway)
[see the handbook to ensure you have the requirements for both X11 and Wayland].

If it's only KDE that does not work, install mesa-devel, there were some users that reported issues with KDE depending on the mesa version. See if that works.
 
If this doesn't work, it may be a problem with drm-66-kmod.

In this thread, Op said that a Radeon RX7600 worked with drm-61-kmod.

Thread 'amdgpu: Radeon RX7600 support'

So i got a radeon RX7600 card and i for the life of me cant setup xorg to run it. I followed FreeBSD handbook by the letter, tried every possible solution i found on forums, it just doesnt work.
Is it even supported by FreeBSD? I'm using version 15.

amdgpu module is loaded, if i run with "radeon" driver it doesnt detect it, but if i run with "modesetting" it panics and reboots the system.

What am i mssing?

Have sddm disabled, I've tried plasma-wayland and sway (Wayland side)
I will explicitly install X11 and try that. I kinda expected Plasma to pull it all in, it did pull some X packages, but there's not startx.
I'm pretty sure though that nothing tried on the DE side is going to help me, unless possibly using a non accelerated X11 driver, which I don't want to do, though it's worth a try just to see if it works.
