Ideally graphics/drm-*-kmod ports should have never been tied to a particular version of *FreeBSD*, but tracked that of *Linux* instead, so users could choose between e.g. drm-4.11-kmod, drm-4.16-kmod, or drm-5.4-kmod regardless of whether they're running 12.x or -CURRENT. My two-core, ten-year-old desktop at $work with Radeon HD 4350/4550 (RV710) is running 2019'ish -CURRENT with drm-legacy-kmod-g20190213 and works flawlessly for many months, rebooting only when there's a power outage. Both 2D (movies) and 3D (games) are full and properly accelerated, CPU is mostly idle, I can e.g. build -jX LLVM and watch some TV show fullscreen with no stuttering -- something I cannot do on the four-core 2018 laptop with recent DRM bits. Situation with graphics on FreeBSD had never been worse, AFAIR. :-( -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
