AMDGPU or RADEON for A4-APU with Kabini graphics??

Is the FreeBSD desktop on the rise??

Generally NO! Only very few people will be savvy enough to take the pains and
to work in the tension-field between deadly boredom, technical adventure and
extreme stability.
While some people say, that Debian is one of the most boring
linux-distributions in the whole world, besides RHEL and CentOS, believe it
or not, FreeBSD is even worse, it has the same downside as the other
US-american products, use being prohibited in so-called
rogue-countries, where you will not be getting any software- and
security-updates.
Yesterday I installed anew, now on my main desktop-PC, of which I used to
think as embedded-workstation, because it takes 25 W of electric power only,
while being fast enough in terms of CPU performance for cheap
multimedia-applications.
Download of KDE-desktop packages mostly went at a velocity around 56 Kbit/s,
so you clearly need a locally mirrored repository for only remotely
professional use. Who else would really wait hours and hours, until the
packages belonging to the K-desktop-environment are only just downloaded
through the package-management system? Only hobbyists like myself.
While these hobbyists can become happy much more easily and faster with Linux.
So really, why take the hassle?

The problem is now, that again with the seasoned A4-fusion-APU, AMDGPU driver
is not working properly, and neither is RADEON, Xorg-autoconfiguration wants
to set up the 'modesetting'-driver, which is not workable either.
What now?
My experience from Linux says, that this used to work both with RADEON first,
and then later with AMDGPU.
