FreeBSD sparky 4.3-STABLE FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE #2: Wed Jul 18 15:36:46 EDT 2001     root@sparky:/usr/src/sys/compile/SPARKY  i386
>Description:
XFree86 4.1 (from ports) locks up on an i815 chip (Sony Vaio PGC-FX220
laptop).  When I would start the server the screen would go black.
Nothing short of ssh'ing in and kill-9ing X would get me back to the
console.  Looking through the server output (which I no longer have,
sorry), I didn't find any errors.  When I grabbed the port of XFree86
4.0.3 and installed it, X started just fine.  I also have linux on
this box, and XFree86 4.1 works.

>How-To-Repeat:
Get a Sony Vaio PGC-FX200 with FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE, XFree86 4.1, and
the /usr/ports/x11/wrapper port, then type 'startx'
>Fix:
It took me a week just to get X running, you think I could actually
FIX something like this?  So, no.  I have no fix.
