Yup, you will get normal virtual terminal, but a bit bigger than
640x480. It is main reason why x11 team ask me to merge newcons ASAP.
Newcons can use framebuffer provided by DRM.
Try it yourself.
You have successfully volunteered to diagnose why a graphical display fails to
start when ports are built using
WITH_NEW_XORG=1
WITH_KMS=1
WITH_GALLIUM=1
I still have a very custom kernel containing
device drm
device radeondrm
and no loadable modules, so I'll be back with a situation report after building
and installing a more GENERIC kernel.
