The option does not help, it only disables automatic
resolution recognition.

http://people.freebsd.org/~sat/abc/sat-xorg.tar.bz2

The tar contains logs from 6.9 and 7.2 and a conf
file which is similar for both versions.

Unfortunately drm won't work as there's no drm
support for Xpress 1100 yet. I tried adding the
pciid, but xorg just hangs at start. No skill/
motivation to hack radeon driver at the moment.

However, the white screen problem stays with
drm/glx/GLcore turned off.

Thanks!
