Well, this is in a VM, which reports the graphics adapter as: vgapci0@pci0:0:2:0: class=0x030000 card=0x00000000 chip=0xbeef80ee rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'InnoTek Systemberatung GmbH' device = 'VirtualBox Graphics Adapter' class = display subclass = VGA When I put the two suggested enties into make.conf, xorg-server fails to compile, saying that it requires dri >= 7.8, whereas my installed dri is 7.6.1_3,2 (from the Ports collection).
