Thanks to the list X11 is now running perfectly on my desktop; not so
on my Thinkpad R51. Here's what's happening. I installed xorg on
this new 8.1 installation, and have run the xorg configure program,
copying the xorg.conf.new file to /etc/X11 as xorg.conf. I have both
hald and dbus enabled in /etc/rc.conf. When I try to run the test on
xorg.conf, or if I just run "startx" I momentarily see the initial
screen, which is displayed when X11 loads, but then the screen goes
blank, and that's all she wrote. No keyboard, no mouse, totally
frozen. The only way out is a reboot via the power switch.
The R51 should have Mobility Radeon 7500 or 9000 graphics. Here's the
xorg.conf from my T42 with a 7500:

Apparently IBM used a number of different graphics cards with this
laptop. Pciconf -lv indicates a 855/GM Montara Integrated Graphics
Device. I am in the process of copying the xorg.conf and
/var/log/Xorg.0.log files over to this computer so that I can post them.
