From <https://www.freshports.org/graphics/drm-current-kmod/#message:

> … Older generations are supported by the legacy kms modules

From <https://www.freshports.org/graphics/drm-fbsd13-kmod/#message>: 

> The experimental drm-current-kmod port can be enabled for amdgpu (for AMD
> GPUs starting with the HD7000 series / Tahiti) or i915kms (for Intel
> APUs starting with HD3000 / Sandy Bridge) through kld_list in
> /etc/rc.conf. radeonkms for older AMD GPUs can be loaded and there are
> some positive reports if EFI boot is NOT enabled (similar to amdgpu).
> 
> For amdgpu: kld_list="amdgpu"
> For Intel: kld_list="i915kms"
> For radeonkms: kld_list="radeonkms"
> 
> Please ensure that all users requiring graphics are members of the
> "video" group.
> 
> Older generations are supported by the legacy kms modules (radeonkms / 
> i915kms) in base or by installing graphics/drm-legacy-kmod.

In lieu of: 

> The experimental drm-current-kmod port 

– I suggest

> This port

(It's not drm-current-kmod, and I assume that graphics/drm-fbsd13-kmod is not
experimental.)

For both packages, <https://www.freshports.org/graphics/drm-legacy-kmod/> for
graphics/drm-legacy-kmod reminds us: 

> DEPRECATED: Obsolete version, use drm-kmod
