This commonly results from some package(s) missing, or that prevents use of
available software, such as malconfiguration or software left behind by having had
an NVidia card installed previously, not because your GPU or modesetting are not
supported. [KMS] drm trouble likely means either libdrm-* is missing, or either or
both of the two firmware packages listed below are missing.
Do you have all the following installed?:
# dpkg-query -W | egrep 'ati|deon|amdg|mwar|mesa' | sort
firmware-amd-graphics
firmware-linux-free
libdrm-amdgpu1:amd64
libdrm-radeon1:amd64
libegl-mesa0:amd64
libgl1-mesa-dri:amd64
libgl1-mesa-glx:amd64
libglapi-mesa:amd64
libglu1-mesa:amd64
libglx-mesa0:amd64
mesa-utils
mesa-utils-bin:amd64
#
If you do, and there is in interfering malconfiguration, then you should see:
# lsmod | egrep 'vid|deon' | sort
drm 614400 10
gpu_sched,drm_kms_helper,drm_display_helper,drm_buddy,amdgpu,radeon,drm_ttm_helper,ttm

The HD6450 is the closest I have to your HD6250, I do have multiple older Radeon
cards that work just fine with Bookworm.
