Hi,

please correct me, if I misunderstood something about KMS .

I built xorg-7.7 on FreeBSD 9.0-STABLE #0: Mon Jun 11 23:48:45 
CEST 2 amd64 .

When I do a plain
 	# startx
(no xorg.conf set) I receive


 	--------------------------------
[...]
(==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", Time: Mon Jul  2 04:46:35 
2012
(==) Using default built-in configuration (30 lines)
(II) [KMS] drm report modesetting isn't supported.
Segmentation fault: 11 at address 0x8

Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault: 11). Server aborting
[...]
 	--------------------------------

Is it this KMS-thing causing the fatal error? From reading 
emails on this list I got the impression this would only affect 
machines with an Intel graphics chip - which I don't have.

Thanks for your help

Peter.
