SUBJECT:  XFree86: Display goes blank and remains blank till reboot
=20


Hi,

System: FreeBSD 4.5, XFree86 4.2.0_1, i810 card, agp support in kernel.

I just upgraded from 4.2 to 4.5, and while running XFree86 4.1 (the one =
on
CD), the initial startup messages can be seen, but after that, the =
display
goes totally blank. No crosshatch is displayed (no wm/desktop =
installed).
Even killing the server has no effect, the screen remains blank. I have =
to
reboot for getting display back. Note that the system is _not_ hung, but
still runs... just the display is blank. I compiled XFree86-4.2.0, and =
still
the same problem occurs. I was using XFree86-4.0.1_8 on 4.2, and it =
worked
fine, hence I assume that it is not a hardware problem.

ps. please reply to me personally, i'm not subscribed to the list.

Thanks.
