This sounds like a possible answer.

Thanks.
I took Xorg off by formating the system and installing version 5.2.1 of
FreeBSD. It's the 2nd time that I've had v5.3 on that laptop and both
times were frustrating. Both times I ran into problems related to Xorg.
There is a lack of documentation concerning Xorg. I'll stick with
XFree86
Thanks for the effort
It may be the version that I have. I downloaded version 5.3 a two or
three months ago. I may have a testing version of 5.3. I'm not sure.
I'll download a new image some other time.
