Xorg modesetting should autoconfigure for you.

I don't want "problematic", I want "it works", and it doesn't matter if "new works" or "old works"; FreeBSD has been able to deliver "it works" for decades. :-) > New ati driver is called AMDGPU and you also need to > install firmwares package. I will try this tomorrow, sounds interesting. I'm still not very confident with using the new termini technici correctly. Thanks for the pointer. Strangely, I have "amdgpu" comments in my configuration files... > It works for me on desktop with RADEON > RX580 with some tuning on UEFI. The HP dm-1 is 10 years old, it doesn't have UEFI yet, and its BIOS / CMOS setup doesn't have too much choices (compared to, for example, a Lenovo Thinkpad from the same era). > On laptop I use Intel drm driver. I have a Lenovo R61i where the Intel graphics works well. Still only 60 FPS in "glxgears", but that's probably normal for "desktop graphics"; it plays Descent=B3 though. ;-) > I > also use hald and dbus.
