Thanks, Evilham. I had read the thread lightly and hope it was fixed. I am not familiar with patching, and mostly just do pkg install, but I do on occasion make install from ports. Right now I am sitting at two computers. On the new Ryzen 7 with a MSI x570 motherboard & a MSI RX570 graphics card, I have the base install of 13.0 Current r353709, no drm-kmod or xorg, fresh and ready. I'm down in /usr/ports/graphics looking at my choices... On my trusty old 2014 HP Pavilion I have Ubuntu installed, and this is where I am writing this email. I looked the email thread, and at Mark Johnston's patch. I can copy it to a thumbdrive, go to the freebsd machine and try to install the patch, but I have hopes I can just find what I need in the /usr/ports/graphics collection. When I did my failed pkg installations yesterday I saw that pkg install drm-kmod installed 3 packages: drm-kmod: g20190710 drm-currentkmod: 4.16.g20190927 gpu-firmware-kmod: g20191015 The gpu-firmware-kmod pkg may be my problem, as the other two did not change. I just looked at Makefile on the gpu-firmware-kmod port and it is still at 2019-10-15. I am patient, and will not rush into this.
