Hi,

I know that it's working, I helped testing it ;) that's why I was
looking forward that it is in head now. But after getting the above
mentioned revision going I did load i915kms, drm, drm2 after reboot and
xorg says "No screens found" and "No Devices found". I tested with the
latest PC-BSD 11-CURRENT and there it works as expected. So I must have
forgotten something. The Question is what ...

FYI: My hardware is a i7-4910HQ

Cheers,
Stefan
