There are some regressions with xf86-video-ati as you can see, we are working on a way to resole this. In the meantime, if you have any of the drm-next or drm-stable ports installed, can you check that they have actually loaded? You need to add kld_list="/boot/modules/radeonkms.ko" to rc.conf to have the module load at boot, or manually, as root, do kldload /boot/modules/radeonkms.ko. Please try to start X after this. Can you please provide the output of kldstat -v if the module is loaded, or believed to be loaded. Thank you! Regards -- Niclas Zeising
