I'm confident that I have the correct i915kms and drm modules loaded
kldstat -vn i915kms
Id Refs Address            Size     Name
 3    1 0xffffffff82c0d000 120c58   i915kms.ko (/boot/modules/i915kms.ko)
        Contains modules:
                Id Name
root at FreeBSD:/home/steven # kldstat -vn drm
Id Refs Address            Size     Name
 4    1 0xffffffff82d2e000 74b70    drm.ko (/boot/modules/drm.ko)
        Contains modules:
                Id Name
                505 drmn

I also installed port gpu-firmware-kmod and I found the three files I need to 
load, i.e., 
/boot/modules/i915_kbl_dmc_ver1_01_bin.ko*  or
/boot/modules/i915_kbl_dmc_ver1_04_bin.ko* and
/boot/modules/i915_kbl_guc_ver9_14_bin.ko* and
/boot/modules/i915_kbl_huc_ver02_00_bin.ko*
but I don't know hw to use them.

Should they be loaded by rc.conf before the i915kms.ko or after?
Or do I have to process them some other way?
