Hi!

You need to make sure that the base sources you use to build
graphics/drm-next-kmod match the kernel you are running. And currently,
this is not the case according to the error.

When you only specify the module name, as opposed the the absolute path
like in /etc/rc.conf, you load the module compiled with the kernel (e.g.
/boot/kernel/i915kms.ko), which is different from the one installed by
drm-next-kmod. And the one built with the kernel doesn't support your GPU.
