Hi there,
Judging from /sys/dev/drm/ contents, and listed kernel options in NOTES, there's currently evidence of support for i810/830 chips in FreeBSD, which (I suspect) is the probable reason why DRI is not enabled on my box (FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT from yesterday, latest X.Org). I also found traces of i810/830 support in FDo CVS (http://freedesktop.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/dri/drm/bsd/i830/), getting me to the fact that i8x0 files were removed from the BSD side, since they were not actually ported. (Unfinished? broken? unstable?)
The i830 DRM stuff is ported in a branch of DRI, but it's not in DRI head because of a security problem with the code.
And there were some persistent issues with older hardware that I never resolved to my satisfaction.
The new 'i915' code fixes these problems and is generally much cleaner - it should be the focus for intel chipset development from here out. I don't know any reason why it shouldn't be possible to apply the freebsd changes from the branch to this code on the head.

Both agp.ko and i915.ko loaded from loader.conf, so this should not be the issue.
But DRI still does not work (root, regular user checked). Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Maybe some patching need to done in DRI support from X server side WRT i915 support?
Thanks. Just for reference, my Xorg.0.log attached.
Ugh, sorry - I mean that i915 fixes the security issues. There is still the work needed to port it to FreeBSD. What I mean is that it only makes sense to concentrate on porting i915.o, not i830.o -- I didn't mean to imply that it would fix your problems immediately.
