i've had a similar problem.  xorg has been continually modified away 
from X11 and xfree86 so that:

1) all cards sold in USA before the nvidia hostile-push-outs are 
effected by XCB targeting disability of xv, including intel video cards

2) users get a black screen if they get past that by buying a foreign 
attack video card

3) if they get a login, its gdm broken and has already put a hole in 
unix Mandatory Access Control using "pam", ssh, crypt and other tools to 
sniff the connection after.

has nothing to do with BSD from what i understand

who trashed your video card's silicon with allot of crap ?  you can bet 
(with any new video card) your the only one with that set of standards - 
IT IS MORE CUSTOM (and trashed) than you think.

where is the code for those "standards" that keep changing every card 
release ?
