I am still missing something needed to get the KMS support for my
Sandybridge to work.It has been working fine until the KMS code was
merged into RELENG-9.

I updated my sources and built a new kernel this morning. I already
had WITH_KMS=YES and WITH_NEW_XORG=YES in my make.conf from building
prior to the patch.  I can confirm that i915kms.ko is built and in
/boot/kernel/

When I tried starting X, the screen never left vty mode. The keyboard
would no longer work, but I could do a clean shutdown via a network
connection. I examined the log and things went awry at:
[   330.411] drmOpenByBusid: Searching for BusID pci:0000:00:02.0

[   330.411] drmOpenByBusid: drmOpenMinor returns -2
where my old log showed:

What am I missing?

Thanks!
