BoughtRadeon r9 270  for linux but wanted to see if it had any support on FreeBSD.  Installed the card, booted up.  It worked at 1920x1080 resolution with both radeonhd and ati drivers.  I was told this card would only work with vesa.  I am quite happy.

For the record, what version of FreeBSD and what is the content of
/etc/make.conf and /etc/src.conf (if any). It's nice to have a record of
just what works and what does not.
