 You're trying to run a graphics driver that requires DRM2 while not
 having DRM2 support included in your kernel. You should either be
 trying a DRMKMS kernel, or configuring X.org to use the vesa driver,
 not intel.
 
 Features like VT switching won't be available without enabling DRM2
 and using the intel driver. Or so I was told years ago concerning DRM
 and Intel chips in NetBSD 5.
