 This is not a bug.  The DRM does not support r300-series hardware. 
 Among other things, trying to initialize it with r100 or r200 microcode
 will probably make it explode in your face.  Now, if this was part of an
 attempt at getting http://r300.sf.net/ stuff working on FreeBSD, that'd
 be another thing :)
