I'm upgrading from FreeBSD 5.3 to 8.1 --- much wonderful work has been
done clearly, I'm very impressed and hat's off to the developers.
Unfortunately I've hit a snag with X. I have an LG "Flatron" W2253, a
5750 graphics card and I have not been able to get them to work with X
at all.
Following the handbook's instructions:
Xorg -config xorg.conf.new
with and without the -retro option just give me a black screen from
which there is no escape.
Does the black screen show a mouse pointer? No escape including
ctrl-alt-f1?
I have to log into the machine from somewhere else on the network to
reboot it. Killing the Xorg process doesn't help.
Try running X without an xorg.conf.
