Hi Torfinn,

> (WW) Can't map IO space!

  That's an easy one :) I should have added that to my email.

# sysctl hw.ofwfb.relax_mmap=1

  The Xorg driver attempts to mmap a region larger than the size of the 
actual device's framebuffer. Rather than wading through X (not my 
favourite activity), it was easier to just allow the mapping. X doesn't 
use more than what it finds on the actual device (this can be seen from 
the startup log), so random memory isn't being trashed.

later,

Peter.
