I have uninstalled and installed from ports.
Do I try the amd-gpu in
/etc/rc.conf
or do I install xorg-radeon*
or other package?

On another machine, I had intel kms in /etc/rc.conf
setting, but upon updating to 12.2-RELEASE, I had to
remove that and add
xorg-intel*
pkg.  And machine is working.  Are there any other tips or gotchas
that may happen?



Thanks,

Antonio
