I will comment out the setting in /boot/loader.conf. Currently
I have the following (interesting) modules:

	# kldstat
	Id Refs Address                Size Name
	 1   47 0xffffffff80200000  2448f20 kernel
	[...]
	 4    1 0xffffffff82821000   250464 amdgpu.ko		<---
	 5    2 0xffffffff82a72000    76570 drm.ko		<---
	 6    5 0xffffffff82ae9000    10eb0 linuxkpi.ko
	 7    4 0xffffffff82afa000    12f30 linuxkpi_gplv2.ko
	[...]

So those seem to be loaded correctly.

After reboot, the result is the same: drm.ko has been loaded
automatically. Thanks for that particular pointer, no need to
explicitely order things that will be automatically ordered
anyway. :-)

I have /dev/drm/{0...255} owned by root:video (with rw for the
group, which the user is a member of). The "kldstat" output
shows that at least drm.ko and amdgpu.ko have been loaded.

I do _not_ have /dev/dri (and card0 therein), which is what
Xorg.0.log seems to complain about.

In the "dmesg" output, the following entry is relevant:

	[drm] amdgpu kernel modesetting enabled.

So this part probably is complete.

The laptop HP dm-1 contains a 'Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI]'
model 'Wrestler [Radeon HD 6310]', as reported by "pciconf -lv".
I have to admit that I'm confused by the "amdgpu" vs. "radeon"
vs. "ati" naming and drivers stuff, though...
