<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">I have a Radeon HD6450
card (Caicos)<br>
<br>
I'd like it to load and give me some higher res console like in
FreeBSD, but I can't figure it out.<br>
<br>
I've dug around in the manpages, rc.conf defaults, loader.help,
etc., but nothing's very clear about how to enable it at boot.
Sure, I can kldload it, but I want it at boot.<br>
<br>
in FreeBSD - it's kld_list="radeonkms.ko", but I don't see
kld_list in /etc/defaults/rc.conf. I tried it anyway, no effect. <br>
<br>
I added amdgpu_load="YES" to /boot/loader.conf and it panics and I
can't figure out how to recover as none of the boot menu options
work (ramdisk, single user, safe mode, etc. all panic on
amdgpu.ko).<br>
<br>
Prolly an indication that amdgpu's the wrong choice :). I'm off
trying to figure out how to rescue the system, but I figure once I
do that I'll try radeon_load="YES" and continue the trial and
error approach until I find out different.<br>
<br>
How do I load my radeon driver at boot?<br>
