Hi folks,
I'm a little confused. Last weekend I installed FreeBSD 8.2 AMD64 from scratch and built xorg from ports, as I have done a few weeks before on the same machine. After testing the configuration file created using
I altered the new xorg.conf.new by modifying the values of the monintor section, as I had done before. On the second testdrive with that config file, the system was frozen. After pressing the power button an starting new, Xorg started. I shut down x for some reason I don't remember and when I started it again, the system froze again. I blamed myself, restartet the pc by powerbutton and had a look on the logfiles. I found nothing. That puzzled me, so today I reinstalled the whole system, built xorg, and altered xorg.conf.new again (file is atached). The first startup was normal, the second startup froze the system. Really odd: The xorg logfile wasn't touched in second startup, so I attached the initial logfile, when everything worked fine.
I've even tried the "AutoAddDevices" option. hal and dbus are working and started in /etc/rc.conf.
Has someone some hint for me? And why was it working a few weeks ago? The machine works fine with Debian and Windows 7.
