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