Hi all,
I'm new to FreeBSD, so please bear with me :)
I have a Fujitsu Amilo-D notebook with a Radeon Mobility M9 card, and
when I try to start X, it crashes with "Caught signal 11. Server
aborting".
There are no other error messages, only the following warning:
"RADEON(0): Bad V_BIOS checksum".
I tried both FreeBSD 5.1 and 4.8.
It worked in FreeBSD 4.8 until I portupgraded everything (I also tried
xfree86-4-server-snap).
I can get X to start if I use the vga driver instead of the ati driver
(but then again, I'd like to use a resolution higher than 320x200 :).
Before, I had debian on the notebook and used the experimental XFree 4.3
packages without problems, so I guess it should somehow work...
These are the last lines of the XFree86 log file:
