            Bug ID: 292751
           Summary: Cannot load drm.ko without vt(4)
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: x11@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: mi@FreeBSD.org

When trying to load the freshly built drm.ko on 15-STABLE, I get the following
error:

    link_elf_obj: symbol main_vd undefined
    Warning: memory type debugfsint leaked memory on destroy (2 allocations, 80
bytes leaked).
    linker_load_file: /boot/modules/drm.ko - unsupported file type

The main_vd is defined in vt(4) -- which I don't use, sticking to the
traditional sc(4).

If vt is a requirement for using drm.ko, the fact should be documented -- and,
maybe, even _detected_ by the port.

Best would've been for the port to work with either console implementation.

(When trying to contact x11@FreeBSD.org directly by e-mail, I got a bounce
accusing me of attempting to post to a mailing list without subscribing. A
maintainer should be reachable by users without any such subscriptions...)
