Ah, so you are using old driver to disable AGP support? :-) You can always turn off DRI from xorg.conf. > > http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?200405181244.28716.jkim > > > > > The PR is here : > > > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/84015 > > > > > > Any clue ? > > > > Have you tried xorg-server-snap?
