For AMD or Intel you need to build and install
/usr/ports/graphics/drm-510-kmod/ (as root)

cd /usr/ports/graphics/drm-510-kmod/; make install

Then modesetting driver should work out of the box.

For nvidia you need to install one of the nvidia binary drivers
nvidia-driver-XXX where XXX matches your GPU generation (see all with
pkg search -x nvidia).

For PCI(-E) devices:

pciconf -lv

For USB devices:

usbconfig

usbconfig dump_all_desc

Have fun :-)
