Hi,
I'm running FreeBSD 4.5-PRERELEASE (cvsuped from source this morning).
Every time I try to run XFree86 -configure my machine reboots. I get
the same behavior if I write a config file and place it in
/etc/X11/XF86Config. Pretty much any time I try to do anything with
X the machine reboots. I have an Athlon 1.2 GHz with 1.5 GB of RAM and
my video card is an AGP Matrox G450 with 32 MB of RAM. The machine is a
Compaq. I've loaded the agp module at boot time by adding
agp_enable="YES" to my /boot/loader.conf and manually created the
agpgart device using sh MAKEDEV agpgart. I see no message to my screen
after I try to run startx, XFree86 -configure, etc., but when the
machine reboots I do see this in dmesg:
kernel trap 9 with interrupts disabled
Fatal trap 9: general protection fault while in kernel mode
instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc02a351b
stack pointer = 0x10:0xec887cf0

processor eflags = resume, IOPL = 3
current process = 152 (XFree86)
interrupt mask = none

done
Uptime: 2m36s
Automatic reboot in 15 seconds - press a key on the console to abort
--> Press a key on the console to reboot <--
Rebooting...
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jason
