Xorg 7.3 does not start on FreeBSD 6.2

Hi,
I have been using FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE for sometime, with xorg-6.9.0, without
any problems.
I've tried to switch over to xorg-7.3 (from ports) using a fresh
install of FreeBSD
6.2 on a new partition.
startx fails (see error info below).

Could someone help? Thanks.

Here is some info that I thought might be relevant:
1. Using Intel D945GCCR motherboard with on-board integrated graphics adapter.
2. Installed FreeBSD 6.2 w/o any packages (used FreeBSD-from-scratch stage_1.sh
    available in the "docs", with minor changes).
3. Installed Xorg (xorg-7.3_1) from ports.
4. Used a working xorg.conf from a previous FreeBSD 6.2, older Xorg
(xorg-6.9.0),
   after changing the module path (to /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/).
5. startx does not work...  (seee errors from Xorg.0.log below)
6. The error "(EE) GARTInit: Unable to open /dev/agpart... " is common to both
   xorg-6.9.0 as well as xorg-7.3_1. The VideoRam (7932KB) and PCI scan data
   detected is the same in both versions of xorg.
7. Older xorg (-6.9.0) has this in the log... (NOT present xorg-7.3_1's log):
