If you just "kldload radeonkms", this is expected, as syscons (the default console driver) doesn't support KMS [1]. However, this doesn't prevent you from running X.Org. In fact, xf86-video-ati will automatically load radeonkms when X.Org is first started, so you don't have to it manually. If instead your monitor turns off after you start X, then there's a problem.

Just stick to the official ports tree. Keep WITH_NEW_XORG in your make.conf and add WITH_GALLIUM here too. [1] If you require a working console while using X.Org, you can switch to the brand new console driver, which was committed to HEAD a few days ago.
