 I built the newer Xorg and it falls flat: goes to a nongraphic

 System is Intel Sandy Bridge with i7 CPU.

Robert Huff responds:

        You don't mention your graphics chip explicitly, but building
libdrm with the KMS option was enough to prevent X from starting on
a Radeon HD 3300.  ("Experimental", indeed!  :-)
        Other will be able to help more if you could post the contents
of "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" and your xorg.conf file.

My /var/log/Xorg.0.log has 0 bytes!

To Andrey Fesenko <f0and...@gmail.com>:

Were you able to start X with

# cat /etc/make.conf
WITH_NEW_XORG=true
WITH_KMS=true

X.Org X Server 1.10.6
Release Date: 2012-02-10
intel(0): Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) Sandybridge Mobile (GT2+)

(end of quote from Andrey Fesenko)

After adding those, graphics/libdrm must be rebuilt, and x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel must have the KMS option enabled and be rebuilt. If you just added WITH_NEW_XORG, there will be other xorg components that need to be updated.
