It seems to have been a corrupted firmware problem! How could that be?! Maybe a side effect of the "srm hack" I reflashed the same v 5.8.16 firmware i already had, and suddenly, i could run all three X servers, that is, 3.3.6, 4.1 and 4.2 Thanks for the efforts I would strongly advise alpha owners with strange problems to update/reinstall firmware as a first, not last measure, in solving them Regards Roberto To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
