I recently upgraded a system to:
FreeBSD 11.0-CURRENT #0 r263263: Mon Mar 17 15:09:18 EDT 2014 amd64
This machine uses an on-board ATI HD 3300 (R780D, according to pciconf).
Suddenly X doesn't start, using either xdm or startx.
The applicable line in the Xorg log seems to be:
[ 19897.547] (EE) RADEON(0): Kernel modesetting setup failed
and things slither downhill from there.
I have googled this and found other occurances, but none that presented
either a clear cause or a clear solution.
(The complete log and my xorg.conf can be found at
"http://users.rcn.com/roberthuff/".)
This is probably my fault - somehow - but I just want to figure it out
and get things back.
Any ideas?
Respectfully,
Robert Huff
