I was finally able to install FreeBSD (7 and 8) on my Powerbook: powerbook6,8, 1.5Ghz G4 12", Nvidia GeForce FX Go5200 I compiled a -CURRENT kernel for ADB support, so the onboard keyboard works -- it does not work with official 7.1 ISO kernel. I have set sysctl hw.ofwfb.relax_mmap=1. %sudo Xorg -configure produces a valid xorg.conf, but running %sudo startx freezes the computer and leaves a message in /var/log/Xorg.0.log. This happens whether I use Option FBDev "False" or not. It loads the nv driver, which loads int10, which loads vgahw. Loading /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/libvgahw.so ... Using HW cursor Linear framebuffer at 0x8000000 MMIO registers at 0x0 (EE) NV(0): pci_device_map_range failed: No such file or directory Fatal server error: Caught signal 11. Server aborting I'm recompiling xorg, but does anyone have ideas what is wrong and how to fix it? Thanks, Rosshelp
