I forget if you said whether you installed from a package or port. Try the other one, esp if you used a package; it might help to compile for your Athlon. Sometimes a mere different way of building fixes things whether it makes obvious sense that it should fix anything or not. Before I gave up, I'd probably try getting tarballs from XFree86.org and building using their instructions (possibly modified from info gained by browsing the FreeBSD port Makefile). Their documents probably have some info about debugging, too. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
