I have exactly the same problem since i upgraded from 7.2 to 7.3 with my ATI
Radeon 9200. After fighting with the new x.org for two weeks now (reading
messages on various lists, trying hints and cvsuping/portupgrading everything on
a daily basis), i was able to have a result with using the following xorg.conf:

But i still have problems:
* leds are not working as reported by many people on this list.
* Awfully slow: scrolling pages in Firefox is very slow. If i put Option
"NoAccel" "False", X fails to start and freezes and i have to ssh in the
system again.
* Fonts are horrible in rxvt

But i still have problems:
* leds are not working (USB Keyboard)(as reported by many people on this list).
* Awfully slow: scrolling pages in Firefox is very slow. If i put Option
"NoAccel" "True", X fails to start and freezes and i have to ssh in the system.
* Fonts are horrible in rxvt. Antialiased fonts are not affected. Same problem
as here: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.freebsd.devel.x11/5152
* Option "XKBOptions" "eurosign:e" does not work any more
* Also tested to change the driver to "ati" instead of "radeon" and it did not
change anything.
