As do Intel (video) drivers....

Not if they require GEM/KMS like all the modern variants do; they're not supported in FreeBSD yet. I have a laptop (Google CR48) that's running the very experimental GEM/KMS code because otherwise it's stuck with a horrible resolution. Even with a custom kernel and custom ports/X11 patches it still has quirks like not being able to get your vty back after you start X.

Is there a PR on this, or at least are the developers aware of it? I could not find a PR. I am running an out-of-the-box 9.0. I tested xorg 7.5 with nothing else other than xdm installed does and got this result. This makes it impossible to investigate any other issues that might arise.
