I have just Installed FreeBSD 5.3 and I am trying to get X started. But after typing "Xorg -configure" (I learned this from the Hand-Book) I got the following error ************************** Fatal server error: xf86EnableIO: Failed to open /dev/io for extended I/O *************************** I have no clue as to what that means I am also pasting the Xorg.0.log file. Thanks in advance Jadukor *********************** Release Date: 18 December 2003 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.7 Build Operating System: FreeBSD 5.3 i386 [ELF] Current Operating System: FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE #0: Fri Nov 5 04:19:18 UTC 2004 root@harlow.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 Build Date: 16 October 2004 Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.X.Org to make sure that you have the latest version.
