Hi, Clemens
You need to build following components:
drm: drm-gem branch
mesa: drm-gem branch
xf86-video-intel: drm-gem branch
xserver: master branch
And it's recommended to use kernel 2.6.25 or newer. In order to build 
and load your drm/i915 kernel module correctly, you may have to 
recompile your kernel with following symbols exported:
shmem_file_setup (mm/shmem.c)
shmem_getpage (mm/shmem.c)
mark_page_accessed (mm/swap.c)

Thanks
