Yes, we are still interested. At the minimum, reports like yours should
help us improve the situation in HEAD and stable/{9,10}.

Could you please expand on this, as I never heard about this? If you
could post at least the output of dmesg(8) and your Xorg.log log file
(if you still have them around), that would help.

If you do agree, could you test with HEAD instead? Aleksandr and Ed
already committed several fixes to vt(4).

And to be sure we are on the same page, please follow the instructions
found the wiki to install graphics ports and to report information:
  https://wiki.freebsd.org/Graphics#Installing_KMS_Ports
  https://wiki.freebsd.org/Graphics#Reporting

Thanks for your report! I hope we can fix all those problems :)
