Hello,

I have a problem with Radeon X1400 (dell 6400) under freebsd 8-current:

startx results in a garbled screen when using the 'radeon' driver.
So I had to disable acceleration. About an hour later, when I turning on 
acceleration - it works perfect. Then I can restart X many times - it works. 
But after rebooting the problem repeats.

I compared some 'good' and 'bad' logs, the difference follows.
I can see, that everything works when these variables are zero:
Ring contents 0x00000000
Ring read ptr contents 0x00000000
Vertex/indirect buffers contents 0x00000000

But I have no idea, how to reset these manually, and why it resets itself in a 
hour.
