1. nouveau(4)
  2. radeon(4)
  3. amdgpu(4)

Discrete graphics cards supported by NetBSD. Information has been taken from developers' personal GPU supplies, as well as dmesgd.

Please note that this primarly covers PCI Express external GPUs, for information on older Conventional PCI GPUs, refer to the radeonfb(4) (and other) manual pages.

Please note that a GPU does not need to be fully supported to configure the display and resolution correctly - see how to use wsfb uefi bios framebuffer. However, in systems where multiple GPU drivers attach (e.g. integrated and discrete), one driver may need to be disabled. The aforementioned guide also shows how to do this.

Please make sure the permissions on /dev/dri/* are set correctly for 3D acceleration to work. See also: /usr/X11R7/share/examples/xorg/xorg.conf

nouveau(4)

In NetBSD 11.0 the nouveau(4) driver seems to be the most stable.
