Yes, I tried DRMKMS kernel for both amd64 and i386, had no effect on 
startability of X, still found no screens.  DRMKMS is a lot like FreeBSD's 
(-current and 10.0-STABLE) newcons.

Copy-and-paste in newcons adds gratuitous double-spacing, can't test that in 
NetBSD with DRMKMS if copy-and-paste doesn't work at all.

I like FreeBSD ports' portmaster or portupgrade much better than 
pkg_rolling-replace.
