yes, but do they (OIDs, drm, agp) work correctly afterwords?
my experience was that on 6.1-RELEASE if i loaded agp and/or i915drm
after acpi_video then they wouldnt work, xorg would fail with a message
along the lines of
"/dev/agpgart" no such file or directory
and the sysctls for turning on and off the screen from acpi_video wouldnt
do anything.
as always, YMMV, :-)
