Thanks, I followed threads such as <https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2018-September/071408.html>. Also followed <https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2018-August/070831.html> for drm / drm2 removal in 12, so I was prepared for some worsening, but unprepared for the current situation. > can you verify that you can suspend/resume without loading the radeonkms.ko … I can not verify, sorry folks. My sense of things earlier this morning: - without a load of radeonkms.ko it is impossible to get a (visible, multi-user) command line – and so, it's impossible to proceed to manually load any additional module. > what was the last version of CURRENT you were able to suspend/resume with? r339174, as far as I can tell. That, with care to use _neither_ drm-stable-kmod _nor_ drm-next_kmod. > i believe johannes lundberg is working on a fix for this issue. Hurrah :-) If it helps to diagnose the underlying cause(s): at one point this morning I'm almost certain that I found myself - with drm-next-kmod without an installation of drm-kmod – and I could not understand how that occurred, because a little earlier it seemed that drm-next-kmod depends upon drm-kmod. ---- Installation of drm-stable-kmod requires removal of drm-kmod. True? (I assume that drm-stable-kmod is still unstable with UEFI for my hardware, but I thought it worth trying.) Thanks, and I might hand around in IRC …
