The monitor has no way of knowing if the CPU is under load or not and therefore cannot react to it. The graphics adapter, OTOH, could be experiencing EMI from the CPU fan as it steps up power with the CPU heating up, or maybe just reacting to the extra heat from the CPU if it's near enough.

Well, I decided to bite the bullet and upgraded to Xorg 6.8.1 anyway. It didn't break vt-switching for me, thankfully. Other than the core keyboard driver being kbd instead of Keyboard now, which threw me off for a couple of minutes, all went well. It seems to be stable enough. Cross fingers, touch wood etc. I also took advantage of the latest cvsup to 5.4-PRE and ensuing recompile to revert to SCHED_4BSD from SCHED_ULE and PREEMPTION in the kernel. The difference is staggering. One of the things I've been doing is to record some of my old cassettes (you know, those old plastic things with 2 holes and a tape inside :) onto CD. Applying a FFT filter to 50 minutes of audio takes between 10 and 15 minutes on this machine (P-III/550, 384MB) depending on the complexity of the filter. During this time, with SCHED_ULE and PREEMTION, the machine is unusable. It freezes hard for periods of 10-12 seconds and then when it unfreezes (while doing disk i/o apparently) the keys you typed turn up in the wrong order. However, now that I've reverted to SCHED_4BSD, the machine remains perfectly snappy while performing the FFT filter, which doesn't happen perceptibly slower. It could be that I misread things entirely (wouldn't be the first time), but wasn't SCHED_ULE's purpose to *improve* the responsiveness of the machine when under load?

Well, I don't know anything near enough about UFS to be able to speculate
on why a valid disklabel is found while the entire physical disk is mounted.
What I would say is that the system freezing when trying to umount the
filesystems could have something to do with this oddity.
However, one thing I'd do ASAP is back up the data (I know 300+ GB is a lot
of data) and boot into single user mode so that the 2 disks aren't mounted.

This kind of thing will often happen on a device that's having difficulty reading the media - either because the media's physical characteristics are close to or outside the tolerance required, or because the drive has a problem such as a dirty or tired optical block. More often than not, the drive will perform an internel reset and attempt to resume reading where it lost track, but sometimes it gets thrown into limbo and the only way to resume operation is to perform a hard reset, hence devfs seeing that the drive is offline and the need to reboot the box.

My radeon gives 560 - 580 fps with direct rendering. An R128 would probably be somewhat slower. Running Slackware with XFree86-4.3.0 I'd get about 60-70 fps out of it. I think this is just telling you that it is loading the modules you told it to. Later in the logfile you see if those modules are actually used. Try to grep for [drm] and [agp] to see if they are really used. Or IIRC grep for UnloadModule to see if Xorg discards some of those modules. Also check for warning (WW) or error (EE) messages.
