Hi,

Any idea if upstream FreeBSD auto-loads the modules?  And if so, how?  I
thought I saw it mentioned in the FreeBSD wiki but can't find it now.

In the case of AMD KMS it might not be a good idea to auto-load because,
even with a supported card, it blanks the console until Xorg (hopefully)
starts.

I assume Intel KMS doesn't have that problem?  After loading i915kms,
the console still works?

Regards,
