I followed the handbook procedure pretty much verbatim. The XFree86 4.1.0 package loads fine. The agp KLD loads fine. XFree86 --configure generates the /root/XF86Config.new file fine and I edit the file to set the correct scan rates, modes and depth. I then run XFree86 --config /root/XF86Config.new. X starts, but instead of the nice grey-grid screen with an X cursor, I get a black screen with a big square white cursor. I can move the cursor fine and I can use ctrl-alt-bkspace to exit X correctly. This is the behavior regardless of what depth or modes I have in the XF86Config; if I do changes the modes, the resolution does change (size of cursor grows or shrinks), but it is the same black screen, big white cursor. I can reproduce this problem on a FreeBSD 4.3 or 4.4 system. Any thoughts? Thanks...
