There is currently no plans to deprecate and remove drm-legacy-kmod. While most of our efforts go to the new drm drivers, we try our best to keep drm-legacy-kmod running. As always, this is a volunteer effort, with less resources than desired, so patches and help to improve drm-legacy-kmod are most welocme. Regards -- Niclas Zeising FreeBSD Graphics Team
