It's not urgent for me. The laptop is triple boot: Gentoo, FreeBSD, 
Windows. My environments are almost the same for FreeBSD and Gentoo. And 
I'm going to booze for a half of the summer.

I tried to port drivers by myself some time ago and stuck with the 
'linux kpi vs drm_os_freebsd' problem. I could trace the problem if I 
had time - it looks like it falls out at the moment when the driver is 
trying to get the details of hardware using PCI registers: GTT and so 
forth. But unfortunately I have loads of other priorities at this point 
such as calculus, numerical methods for PDE, Fourier analysis, etc, 
therefore I stuck with old good Linux for now.

I'm mentioning the problems with my hardware merely as a tester.
