I tried the latest kernel 11 from experimental. The drm and i915 modules
are loaded and I can switch to virtual terminals. However now I can't
even login to my Xfce session via KDM because keyboard input isn't
working. (cursor blinks but I can't type in anything)
After I added drm2 and i915kms to /etc/modules again and rebooted, the
graphical login works again but virtual terminals aren't usable.
Newcons plus i915kms sounds like an interesting idea. Please feel free
to ping me for further testing. I'm also subscribed to debian-bsd now.
Regards,
Markus
