Hello! The 7.2->7.3 update was not as painless as expected... xorg hanged the system. After starting with a fresh xorg.conf that did not lead to the hang, eventually I found AGPFastWrite to be responsible. This happens with the ati driver that "X -configure" selected as well as with the radeon driver that is more appropriate. (Reproducible with the xorg.conf from "X -configure" with just AGPFastWrite enabled.) My board is "Radeon RV250 [Mobility FireGL 9000]". This has probably nothing to do with FreeBSD. Therefore, I should report to xorg... but in case anyone runs into the same problem or has a clue why this happens, I report it here. (Also, KDE uses way too big fonts for everything since the upgrade -- but this is totally unrelated.) Regards, Jan Henrik
