It is documented here=20
https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-config.html=20
, under 5.4.5, that you also need to install drm-kmod.  Currently, due=20
to how packages are built, if you are running FreeBSD 12.2, you need to=20
build it from ports.  Once the package build cluster is also updated to=20
12.2, that need goes away.
