Not too long ago, I had compiled, installed, and run successfully
XFree86 4.1.0 on FreeBSD 4.0.1.  This weekend I set up another box, this
time with FreeBSD 4.1.1.  After compiling and installing XFree86 4.0.1
on this box, I get the following error when I run "XFree86 -configure:"

--------------
hrothgar# /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 -configure

XFree86 Version 4.0.1 / X Window System
(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6400)
Release Date: 1 July 2000
        If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is
newer
        than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting
        problems.  (see http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ)
Operating System: FreeBSD 4.1.1-RELEASE i386 [ELF] 
Module Loader present
(==) Log file: "/var/log/XFree86.0.log", Time: Mon Dec 18 00:21:31 2000
(--) Using syscons driver with X support (version 2.0)
(--) using VT number 9


Fatal server error:
xf86EnableIO: Failed to open /dev/io for extended I/O


When reporting a problem related to a server crash, please send
the full server output, not just the last messages.
This can be found in the log file "/var/log/XFree86.0.log".

-----------------
This box uses EXACTLY the same hardware as my FreeBSD 4.0.1 box
(including 3dfx Voodoo 2 3000 PCI video card).  Any ideas as to what the
problem might be?

TIA
