I had this effect earlier. XFree was "trying" to change to graphics mode a few times and then fell back to text-mode. I could only see some weird characters on my display. Then the PC was in an unusable state, but if I holded down <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Del> long enough it rebooted, so it was not frozen. I wanted to confirm your problem today, because I recognized the symptoms, but I failed :) I have: FreeBSD xxx.local 5.1-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT #0: Wed Jul 30 20:38:47 CEST XFree-ports: XFree86-4.3.0,1 XFree86-FontServer-4.3.0_1 XFree86-Server-4.3.0_8 XFree86-clients-4.3.0_2 XFree86-documents-4.3.0 XFree86-font100dpi-4.3.0 XFree86-font75dpi-4.3.0 XFree86-fontCyrillic-4.3.0 XFree86-fontDefaultBitmaps-4.3.0 XFree86-fontEncodings-4.3.0 XFree86-fontScalable-4.3.0 XFree86-libraries-4.3.0_5 nvidia-driver-1.0.4365 was compiled today with: make install WITH_FREEBSD_AGP=yes My /boot/loader.conf is: agp_load="YES" nvidia_load="YES" linux_load="YES" linprocfs_load="YES" It works again! :) Perhaps I could help. Martin PS.: Don't set option "RenderAccel" in the device section it has weird effects on rendering smaller images. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
