so I went ahead and installed FreeBSD-current on this machine, and then
drm-devel-kmodas you recommended. Alas, I'm getting an error:

KLD amdgpu.ko: depends on kernel - not available or version mismatch

some googling showed that - since I did a fresh install of -current just
now - amdgpu must be out of sync. the version I have installed is:

xf86_video-amdgpu-19.1.0_1.

suggestions?
TIA
