I read about new radeon drivers, KMS. but I don't know how to install Xorg. Do I need to put in make.conf WITH_NEW_XORG or not, please. Do I need to rebuilt kernel with KMS support? > If you want ATI kms you need the very latest FreeBSD CURRENT. Start by looking at the handbook for information on how to do this. See for instance http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/current-stable.html . Secondly, you need the patch to update xorg and mesa ports. It was sent as a CFT on the mailing list earlier today, and is also avalable at http://people.freebsd.org/~zeising/xorg-mesaupdate.diff . Lastly, add WITH_NEW_XORG= and possibly also WITH_GALLIUM= to /etc/make.conf to compile the new xorg stack, and then compile xorg. Hope this works for you! Regards! -- Niclas Zeising
