Hello there :)

Recently installed FreeBSD on my PowerMac G5 7,3 2.0DP and just wow,
it works great!
But not X ...

I read several guides, tried to use vesa instead of ati (ATI 9600),
tried to turn off AllowEmptyInput and UseFBDev, etc, nothing really
work. Build and rebuild X with and without HAL support. I always get
the same error. Here's the thread showing my work:
http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?p=238735



Here's what happens when I startx:



root@asturias:/home/666 # startx
xauth:  file /root/.serverauth.3943 does not exist
xauth: (argv):1:  bad display name "asturias:0" in "list" command
xauth: (stdin):1:  bad display name "asturias:0" in "add" command
