Taking 15-Dec-2014 as a starting point, booting a GENERIC kernel
produces a working X server without DRI/DRM/DRM2 support since that's
not been done for r128.

Booting my custom kernel based on GENERIC but with with drmkms support
removed and the UMS r128drm driver added produces the errant behavior.

Now backing up to 1-Dec-2014.
