I previously reported the same symptoms which occurred (repeatably) a few minutes after booting and starting X after a fresh -RC2 install from ISO. The problem seemed to have gone away after rebuilding the OS after cvsuping -CURRENT on 30'dec. But... I just got it again (once) after being "up" since 30'dec. Typing away in -chat and the screen goes black (with "no signal" displayed) and the power light doesn't show "power save", but blinks green (meaning unknown). The keyboard is dead. I have to use my reset button. During next boot I get a LOR. (I see that in dmesg.yesterday too and it looks like others have reported the same thing, so I won't go into detail on that.) (The radeon driver has worked fine for me under 4.7-STABLE.) If someone wants to help me debug this, or at least give me some clues, I'm willing to spend some time on it, else I'll probably just see how often it happens or goes away after 5.0-RELEASE and/or go back to 4.7. Or are XFree86-on-FreeBSD problems better dealt with in XFree86 forums? Thanks. -- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
