> The experimental drm-current-kmod port can be enabled for amdgpu (for AMD

> APUs starting with HD3000 / Sandy Bridge) through kld_list in
> /etc/rc.conf. radeonkms for older AMD GPUs can be loaded and there are
> some positive reports if EFI boot is NOT enabled (similar to amdgpu).
>=20

In lieu of:=20

> The experimental drm-current-kmod port=20

=E2=80=93 I suggest

> This port

(It's not drm-current-kmod, and I assume that graphics/drm-fbsd13-kmod is n=
ot
experimental.)

For both packages, <https://www.freshports.org/graphics/drm-legacy-kmod/>; f=
or
graphics/drm-legacy-kmod reminds us:=20

> DEPRECATED: Obsolete version, use drm-kmod
