Now I have isolated the problem with x.org but still not been able to find a solution. X crash is not random, but keyboard associated and appears 100% when pressing any key on keyboard and and letting it auto-repeat. Meanwhile, updated the whole system (kernel and world) to 7.2-PRERELEASE. Recompiled xf86-input-keyboard and xorg-server, but nothing helps in this case. :( With best regards, Ott Köstner _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
