@Scott
fbcon is loaded by the -intel driver by i830_kernel_mode_enabled() in
src/i830_driver.c:
ret = drmCheckModesettingSupported(busIdString);
if (ret) {
if (xf86LoadKernelModule("i915"))
ret = drmCheckModesettingSupported(busIdString);
}
/* Be nice to the user and load fbcon too */
if (!ret)
(void) xf86LoadKernelModule("fbcon");
So basically i915 and fbcon are loaded when checking for KMS.
