Hello.

I am only using console framebuffer. How it works with DRM KMS.

Just works. The kms code supports the fb interface.

Suppose I compile DRM i1915 with KMS. How can I swich video mode on
start and than from user space.

Loading the driver switches to the native resolution of the lcd monitor connected and runs a fbcon on it. Didn't try to switching modes later.

HTH,
