--- Comment #2 from Friedrich Volkmann <bsd at volki.at> ---
Just upgraded the kernel, the base system and all the ports and reconfigured a
few things. Many problems are gone now, except this.

I do have the drm-kmod (drm-kmod-g20190710) port installed now and loaded and
no drm-kmod-legacy (never had that in use except for testing). I had to remove
"#device drm" from the kernel config because it was obsolated.

I can't delete the xf86-video-intel port because that's the one driver that
supports my onboard graphics chip, and the vesa driver wouldn't support the
1920 x 1200 resolution of my monitor.

There is no /etc/X11/xorg.d, and removing /etc/X11/xorg.conf doesn't seem to
help. Switching to the console still causes the screen to either turn white or
black.

My kernel modules are loaded from /boot/kernel/, not /boot/modules/. What's the
difference? The modules in both directories have the same names, but the
modules in /boot/modules are significantly bigger.
