Thanks for the reply.

Well, this is in a VM, which reports the graphics adapter as:

vgapci0_at_pci0:0:2:0:	class=0x030000 card=0x00000000 chip=0xbeef80ee 
rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'InnoTek Systemberatung GmbH'
    device     = 'VirtualBox Graphics Adapter'
    class      = display
    subclass   = VGA

When I put the two suggested enties into make.conf, xorg-server fails to 
compile, saying that it requires dri >= 7.8, whereas my installed dri is 
7.6.1_3,2 (from the Ports collection).
