I've just checked in the basics of the i915 DRM for FreeBSD but nothing

After I kldload i915.ko I see nothing in the dmesg... am I missing
something? or as the AGP driver stolen the card?

Oh, yes. This is something you need to look at. The freebsd model is such that only one driver can be registered for each pci address. In the DRI tree there's a branch (i865-agp-0-1-branch) where I ported the old module to freebsd, and dealt with these issues. There were some problems which I didn't resolve about support for older chipsets and some backwards compatibility concerns also that meant I didn't merge that one to the trunk, but the device registration code should be fine.


I believe my changes to agpgart to accomodate this (the drm becomes a sub-driver of agpgart) went into the FreeBSD kernel code a while ago.
