It's not possible to compare the last code that was in sys/dev/drm2 with ev= en the first drm-kmod. drm-kmod didn't originated from the sys/dev/drm2 code, it was started to be port from scratch from the Linux code with Linuxkpi. If radeonkms doesn't work for you on -CURRENT (I insist on -CURRENT as it's= the only branch activelly supported right now) please create a new issue at https://github.com/freebsd/drm-kmod/. Note that it works for powerpc64 for = some devices and while it doesn't mean that it might work on i386 or with the hardware that you have it means that it's not dead code. I suggest you first try the image I've made a few weeks ago, see https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2020-September/077024.h= tml for the links.

What brand/model is that ? --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
