>Environment:
FreeBSD 9.1-RC2 amd64
>Description:
I have an MSI K9VGM-V motherboard with on-board graphics (VIA Chrome9)
and also I have an ATI X600 board plugged into the PCIe x16 slot on
the board.
Previously, I had no trouble with this combination, but in the latest
xorg stuff, when running "X -configure" I got a fatal error:
X.Org X Server 1.10.6

Configuration failed.
>How-To-Repeat:
I don't know. I guess that you would have to try to have both a Via Chrome 9
graphics chipset _also_ also an ATI X800 (r300) card plugged in.
Or perhaps nowdays "X -configure" will just barf if it is run on any
system where there exists one or more graphocs chipsets that are not
connected to any monitor(s).
>Fix:
I have no idea. Sorry.
