The 'X -configure' command produced wrong config. And even after removing all incorrect records in it - this is take no effect. I continuously updating ports and rebuild the X.org server when modifications appear. The question is to better downgrade to previuos version that work fine or wait a pathes? ps. The 7.1-RELEASE/amd64 PC have Radeon X300. The 6.4-RELEASE/i386 PC have GeForce 4 MX 440.
