X fails after upgrade to xorg-7.2; FreeBSD AMD64 w/ Radeon 9600 Pro

Help, X was working just fine until I did a portupgrade of 
xorg 6.9.0 to 7.2.

Looks like X is starting but my LCD monitor just goes black 
with the monitor's OSD reporting "video input, out of range".

I've gone back through Xorg configuration 
(via "xorgcfg -textmode") and verified correct settings for 
my graphics card and the monitor's Horz. / Vert. scan 
frequencies etc., everything being in order.

#Xorg -configure gives Driver "ati", Boardname "RV350 AP 
[Radeon 9600]" and BusID "PCI:1:0:0"

I've also run #xorgcfg -textmode choosing Driver "radeon" and 
Card "** ATI Radeon (generic).." and still no luck.

Please help. Anyone have their Radeon 9600 card working in 
Xorg-7.2 with just a basic / non accelerated setup, or any 
setup? 

Thanks,
Byron


System info:
