I think drm is loaded automatically by X (or maybe I am interpreting kldstat wrong?).
There is no /dev/dri/card0, I don't know why. Has anyone an Idea what I could try next?

This is the output of
# ls /dev/dri/card*
ls: No match.

# kldstat (right after boot before startx):

Id Refs Address            Size     Name

# kldstat (after unsucessful startx with radeon):

This is the relevant part of the log file:

drm couldn't attach to the card which resulted in a KMS failure.

No idea why, since I don't use KMS.  Maybe someone with more
knowledge can help you out.

Do you have the drm module loaded?  I couldn't see anything
in the trace which indicates that drm was loaded by X.
