There appeared to be no errors in any of the install, Xorg -configure is 
happy.

But when I run Xorg -config xorg.conf.new (with or without -retro) 
screen goes black, computer freezes and I can only restart it by first 
powering off...

I have searched for configuration files for this machine without success.

The output of pciconf says

vgapci0@pci0:0:2:0:     class=0x030000 card=0x00021179 chip=0x35828086 
rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
vgapci1@pci0:0:2:1:     class=0x038000 card=0x00021179 chip=0x35828086 
rev=0x01 hdr=0x00


Note I have sent this to following mailing lists:
xorg@lists.x.org
freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org
freebsd-x11@freebsd.org

Hope that's OK

TIA

PS May well ask same question soon about a SA10-S811...
