Thats a very good question! I am not loading it myself
explicitly anyhere, so my guess is that xorg is loading it.
On the machine right now (which I was using with X11 yesterday)
it only has drm2 loaded - again, I assume from starting X

OCuld it be that X is not recognising the amdgpu module
because I dont have the right driver, and is thus trying to
load up the old drm as it has a radeon driver ?
