Greetings,
I am running FreeBSD 4.0-release. Initially,
I had sysinstall install the XFree86 3.3.6 on my system.
I decided to install XFree86-4 from /usr/ports so that I
could use the TrueType fonts (the 3.3.6 way, hung my
machine).  Did the cd /usr/ports/x11/xfree86-4.  make make install.
All went well.  With some help from the list, got my mouse working.

Problem:  When I start Xfree86 4.0, I get the desktop.  I start a terminal
(or really, anything), and after a short period of time, the system just
locks up.
I can't reach any virtual terminals, keystrokes to shutdown the Xserver
don't work,
nada.  I've looked at the log files and see nothing out of the ordinary.

Any ideas ?

thanks,
Darryl
