I've seen two issues with 7.3.0, though neither are what you described: 1) http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-x11/2007-September/005205.html (which I also saw with xorg 7.2) 2) http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-x11/2007-September/005213.html I'm wondering your just experiencing different symptoms for problem number 1.
