In rc.conf I have kld_list="ig4 iichid amdgpu" Replace amdgpu with radeonkms. It will in turn load various radeon*_bin.ko modules for firmware. I don't have this card so this is just a guess (I am running 13.0-ALPHA3). Compile /usr/ports/graphics/drm-fbsd13-kmod at the same time as the kernel by adding PORTS_MODULES=graphics/drm-fbsd13-kmod PORTS_MODULES+=graphics/gpu-firmware-kmod to /etc/src.conf. AFAIK installing a package won't work. I need ig4 and iichid drivers for the touchpad.Received on Fri Feb 05 2021 - 06:06:45 UTC
