Namely I did yesterday a fresh installation of an older Pentium III machine and was unable to get X going. I got Xorg as pkg_add -r by the way and the rest of the system was installed from ISO image. Yes, I did have Section "ServerFlags" Option "IgnoreAbi" "on" EndSection I looked carefully xorg.conf.new and the listed video driver was i810. I did not manually compile that driver as I thought that was included into XOrg( at least on two other new computers I use i810 driver and it was included into XOrg). I tried though to load it manually into kernel by editing load.conf file. Sorry I am not enclosing log file as I wiped installation. It was very late last night and I thought it will take me half an hour to get things working. I end up spending 3 hours. Then I tried PC-BSD 1.4 which is 6.2 stable from July and everything went without a hitch. I checked xorg.conf and I saw that the listed driver is Xf86-video-intel-2.1.1 Should I try to install Xf86-video-intel-2.1.1 and then just try to hand configure xorg.conf file. I did notice some discussion yesterday about i810 but I thought it was relevant just for upgrading not for the new installation. Any input or suggestion will be appreciated. Predrag Punosevac
