The right ones are loaded automatically by the main radeonkms driver - at least that's what happens with the amdgpu one. You almost certainly need to compile the drm-kmod port to get things working - installing the package is a recipe for panics IME. I gather that for radeonkms the radeon dri driver works but for amdgpu (my laptop) there's /usr/local/lib/dri/amdgpu_dri.so wanted by Xorg but I can't find it anywhere. -- Steve O'Hara-Smith <steve@sohara.org>
