Xorg detected your mouse at device /dev/sysmouse.
Please check your config if the mouse is still not
operational, as by default Xorg tries to autodetect
the protocol.

Hi all, I've just installed Xorg but when I do
# Xorg -config xorg.conf.new -retro
the system crash, black Screen, not responding.

If ctrl-alt-f1 still works, it's not crashed, just an input problem.

-My rc.conf

Code:

hald_enable="YES"
dbus_enable="YES"

My xorg.conf.new

Code:

Section "ServerLayout"
	Identifier     "X.org Configured"
	Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
	InputDevice    "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
	InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
	Option "DontZap"   "off"
	Option         "AllowEmptyInput" "false"

You're running hal anyway, so you should remove AllowEmptyInput. (Note that AEI is trouble, and mostly misused due to historical accidents. If you want to disable hal input detection, use AutoAddDevices as shown in the Handbook.)

Code:

Section "Device"
	Identifier  "Card0"
	Driver      "radeon"
	VendorName  "ATI Technologies Inc"
	BoardName   "RS300M AGP [Radeon Mobility 9100IGP]"
	BusID       "PCI:1:5:0"
EndSection

For a newer video board, I'd suggest adding

Code:

Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"

in there. But the 9100 is very old and the radeon driver uses XAA for some older boards.

Hi Freed,
I am facing the same problem i.e. my screen goes blank and system stops responding on doing:

Code:

Xorg -config xorg.conf.new -retro

I have same graphic card i.e. ATI Radeon 9100 IGP, on Toshiba Satellite laptop.
I am running FreeBSD 8.0 release version.

I am able to run gnome after disabling dri and dri2 and enabling Noaccel in xorg.conf.
as mentioned in the post:
http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=11453

But then windows move/resize very sluggishly.
Please tell me have you found some better the solution to your problem?

I will be thankful.

I am able to run gnome after disabling dri and dri2 and enabling Noaccel in xorg.conf.
as mentioned in the post:

But then windows move/resize very sluggishly.

I would try that without setting NoAccel. And make sure Composite is off. It might be helpful if you posted your xorg.conf.

I would have sent have my xorg.conf but i was fed up of problems with Freebsd (my touchpad, wifi were also not working) so i formatted my laptop and installed Debian over it.
I will install FreeBSD some time again on my desktop which have newer hardware.

But trust me, the only change i did was disabling dri and dri2 and enabling NoAccel.
