No run X and PC freezed

[juanE]

Hi everybody:

I am a FreeBSD new user. I have downloaded the 7.2-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso file and installed it into my machine. I have just done the base installation (not X and a minimum number of packages). When run it the first time I "installed" the xorg and the openbox window manager, as root:

pkg_add -r xorg
pkg_add -r openbox

No errors found.
Next I have "configured" the Xorg with:

Xorg -configure

and then:

Xorg -config xorg.conf.new

But, I only see some text messages (no error messages) and nothing!: My PC is freezed (with the text messages in the screen)! I cannot pass to text console with Alt+Fn: Nothing works.

What's wrong?

I have tried with:

startx

and idem: PC freezed.

what is happening? Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
Regards!

Which driver did Xorg -configure find? Have a look in the xorg.conf.new file.

You may need to install the x11-drivers/xf86-video-sis driver.

Finally I got it!

Thanks SirDice for your advices.

I installed xf86-video-sis and I replaced "driver=vesa" with "driver=sis" in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.

Thanks!
