See /usr/share/doc/xf86-video-intel-*/NEWS, it's a kernel parameter.

So just create a file named (for example) /etc/modprobe.d/kms.conf with
a single line:

options i915 modeset=1

(At least this is how I understood. I haven't tried this way, I just
tried the "enabled by default case".)

And yes, till I did not remove the vga= line, I hadn't had a terminal at
all, it was just blank. Once I removed, I got a 80x25 terminal, but no
framebuffer.

Only in X.

I'll have a look at it, I did not change xorg.conf so far.

Thanks.
