whenever i try to configure XFree86 my entire computer freezes - i cant use 
my keyboard to do anything, my mouse pointer disapears and i cant use ctrl-c 
or ctrl-bkspace to break out of whatever is happening. i cant even switch 
screens to try to control it or stop it from there.

my output (i copied by hand):
XFree86 Version 4.1.0 / X Window System
(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6510)
Release Date 2 June 2001
   If the server is older than {blah blah blah}
Build Operating System: FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE i386 [ELF]
Module Loader present
(==) Log file "/var/log/XFree86.0.log", Time: Tue Feb 26 21:33:46 2002

it freezes here. i dont know what to do so i shut the power off and restart. 
then fsck finds some errors due to not being shut down properly... the only 
weird thing i can see here is that im running 4.5-STABLE not 4.4.  also, one 
of the problems fsck finds, an unref file, has the date and time of the log 
file above. fsck clears it, but whats going on??
