APU 5757m ARUBA chipid=0x990b no /dev/dri

[Martin Kristensen]

I bought an Acer Aspire V5 with and AMD 5757m APU on the off chance it 
would be supported by FreeBSD, alas it seems that is not the case with the 
KMS driver.

Xorg fails to start with the driver. It seems to be because /dev/dri is 
never created. This also does not happen if I load radeon.ko radeonkms.ko. 
Oddly enough neither of these will load the firmware .ko files, although 
loading those manually changes nothing.

The machine is running -CURRENT with a GENERIC kernel, although I have 
removed the WITNESS options. I have attached output from pciconf, devinfo, 
dmesg and pkg info as well as Xorg.log.

If there are any patches I can test or any settings to experiment with I'd 
love to hear about it. The machine is a development / test machine so I can 
wipe it and start over without issue.

Thank you all for making FreeBSD viable on the desktop.
