Are you=20 > trying binary distributions or compiling on your own? >=20 When FreeBSD 12.1 was first released, there were issues with the binary=20 package of drm-fbsd12.0-kmod, since all packages still were built on=20 12.0, and a kmod built on 12.0 didn't work on 12.1. Since then, the=20 package build cluster has changed to build all packages for 12 on 12.1,=20 so if you're running 12.1 the binary package should work. If you are=20 running 12-stable you need to compile the driver though. Regards --=20 Niclas Zeising
