It turns out all the failure patterns I've thought I've seen so far up
through .38.x are moot.

However, now on .39-rc, the KMS'd console is stable, and starting X
makes it bad again.

It there anything useful I can pull from any logs on the startup of X?
Either from the X
server, or the kernel. Last time I looked at the drm log from the kernel
It was unreadable
to a mere mortal, but I hope you guys can point me to what debug knobs
to enable to get a good
view of the interesting parts (How does one start a minimal X, btw?
"xinit" gives me an
undecorated xterm with the jitter. Can one start something more minimal?)

Currently running today's git xorg-server and xf86-video-dri.
