I just removed the nvidia card from machine (and deleted x11/nvidia-driver)
and have successfully installed drm-kmod and have everything working on it
(even GLX stuff) *IF* the X client is started locally but if I try to run a
remote client on my desktop it is slow as hell (as far I can it is not
using drm-kmod).

For example with my nvidia-driver set up I could do this and it would work
at 95% the speed of doing it "locally":

user% xhost +
user% sudo su - otherUser
otherUser% setenv DISPLAY :0.0
otherUser% firefox

But if I do the same thing with drm-kmod (see kldstat below for details) it
runs at perhaps 1-5% of the speed of running it as "user" when run as
"otherUser".
