Thank you in advance. While it'd be nice to get better details regarding your environment. May I suggest installing one of the drm kernel modules found in /usr/ports/graphics for example: drm-510-kmod/ drm-515-kmod/ drm-61-kmod/ drm-kmod/ in most cases drm-515-kmod would probably be your choice. If you follow that with /usr/ports/graphics/gpu-firmware-radeon-kmod, you should be all set. Any of this may also be installed with pkg(8). For example: pkg install drm-515-kmod followed by: pkg install gpu-firmware-radeon-kmod Now you have all you need to get HD graphics. Next you'd add the following to rc.conf(5) kld_list="radeonkms" After a system restart you should have everything loaded save X and friends. X(7) should recognize your hardware. So nothing more should be required to use your hardware. HTH --Chris
