Thank you for the script but I did downgrade 11th times because new
xserve doesn't work on my system.
The script found just that I need to put radeon or intel in rc.conf. For
my Radeon drm.kmod doesn't work - black screen and I am using scfb
driver which doesn't work on new xserver or I do nnot know how to do.
As I wrote before I have in /usr/local/etc/xorg.conf.d/driver_scfb.conf
where I have 
Section "Device"
	Identifier "Card0"
	Driver	   "scfb"
EndSection	

and work for me on old xserver.

Thank you. No more update and downgrade. I need to work too.
