My box has a 128 GB=20 Transcend SSD and onboard Radeon HD 8370D graphics. I installed Xorg. Everything looks fine - there is no error message=20 anywhere. Then I issued : kldload radeon=20 Xorg -configure The above creates xorg.conf.new with radeon as the driver. So far, so=20 good. There is no error message on ttyv0 yet, or at any time later too. But when I give the command the command : X -config /root/xorg.conf.new I get a totally blank screen. What could be wrong ? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Manish Jain
