 Nice.  My Centrino notebook is named CENTAUR.  :-)

 I had the same problem.  To solve it, you need to use the
 latest Xorg 6.9.  Deinstall all of your Xorg packages,
 update your ports collection, and then install the latest
 Xorg 6.9 stuff and DRI port.  Then it will work.
 
 If you're interested, here's the dmesg, Xorg.log and output
 from glxinfo and various other things from my i915 notenook:

 These are some of the packages required ("pkg_info" output):
 
 dri-6.4.1,2
 libdrm-2.0
 libglut-6.4.1
 xorg-clients-6.9.0_1
 xorg-libraries-6.9.0
 xorg-server-6.8.99.903
 
 Any later versions should work, too.
 
 Best regards
    Oliver
