Hi

If by "based on HEAD of the kms-drm" you mean the master branch, that is
outdated.
If you're running stock kernel, I recommend installing graphics drivers
using pkg.

pkg install drm-stable-kmod (the drm-v4.9 branch)
pkg install drm-next-kmod (the drm-v4.11 branch (usable but opencl, vulkan
and vaapi decoding has bugs))

If you want to experiment with the newest version, try branch drm-v4.15-WIP
but that requires a kernel (or linuxkpi.ko only is fine) from here:
