Hi,

so I did full reinstall with 12.0-STABLE snapshot, used port
drm-fbsd12.0-kmod-4.16.g20190430, kldload /boot/modules/i915kms.ko and 
it works - kind of. Just one trouble, I can't see anything on screen
connected to VGA output, just mouse X cursor, because other output is
active before VGA and all three xterms are there, left of my visible
screen (I can move mouse cursor to the left, off the screen).

grep EDID Xorg.0.log

[   715.398] (II) intel(0): EDID for output eDP1
[   715.398] (II) intel(0): EDID Version: 1.4
[   715.399] (II) intel(0): EDID (in hex):
[   715.427] (II) intel(0): EDID for output VGA1
[   715.428] (II) intel(0): EDID Version: 1.3
[   715.429] (II) intel(0): EDID (in hex):
[   715.429] (II) intel(0): EDID for output DP1
[   715.430] (II) intel(0): EDID for output HDMI1

So I think I need somehow disable eDP1 output and it should be OK, but
how? When i915kms module is kldloaded, there are some tunables
mentioned, like kern.vt.fb.modes.VGA-1 - could it be used for it?

Milan
