Hi!
I believe you can use graphics/drm-kmod to get an appropriate kernel=20
driver for this GPU.  Please follow the instructions posted after the=20
installation wrt. loading the module and so on.

When using drm-legacy-kmod you generally need to use=20
xf86-video-ati-legacy with ATI/AMD graphics cards.
