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. ------=_NextPart_000_0037_01C212F0.FC078F00 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Diso-8859-1"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 5.50.4134.100" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>i'm having the same problem as this = person=20 had</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV>FROM: Ashish Kulkarni<BR>DATE: = 04/22/2002 07:41:59<BR>SUBJECT: =20 XFree86: Display goes blank and remains blank till reboot <P> <P><PRE><FONT face=3DCOURIER>Hi, System: FreeBSD 4.5, XFree86 4.2.0_1, i810 card, agp support in kernel.
