I ended with unfunctional 2.7.1 version of xf86-video-intel driver, that slows simple glxgears test to about 1 FPS, the sollution is to downgrade the
xf86-video-intel package to 2.6.3 version using portdowngrade:
After these steps restart x11 server and enjoy working 2D/3D accelration on Intel graphics cards.
Tested on Intel Q35 motherboard with Intel GMA 3100, works like a charm.
A QUESTION TO FREEBSD DEVELOPERS: If 2.7.1 drivers DOES NOT WORK why include them into mainline Ports tree?
# pkg_add -r xorg
