The last X.Org driver supporting UMS will probably work, but consider
this a dead-end: starting with HD 5000, newer hardware requires KMS.

We don't support this officially in the ports tree, because it would be
a hell to maintain and test all combinations. We prefer to improve our
KMS stability, as it's already the only way forward.

I don't know. I would try the newer Mesa first (9.1.7).
