I just pushed some repos to kernel.org: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jbarnes/drm-2.6.git drm-modesetting branch contains the latest bits, rebased to drm-intel-next git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jbarnes/libdrm.git modesetting-gem branch contains the latest headers & libdrm (and a wip test program, modetest)
I'm not sure about the problem you're seeing; I'm pretty sure the interrupt stuff still needs some work when modeset=1 (and possibly when modeset=1), but my main test machine is a 965GM (Thinkpad t61) and I'm able to modprobe the driver with modeset=1 ok. One thing you might run into if you build the driver in is the load order wrt the AGP driver; the latter must load first for everything to work, and in the builtin case I'm not sure if that happens.
