FBdev is something that exists only on Linux, and is both unnecessary
and cannot be used on FreeBSD.

                              

You do need to install the X11 keyboard and mouse drivers to interface
with the FreeBSD console drivers, and you should check that the sysctl
hw.ofwfb.relax_mmap is 1. Your xorg.conf looks basically identical to
mine. Did you change anything since the last X server log you sent out?

-Nathan

                              

I tried using ati as the driver then switched it back to r128. I
reinstalled r128. Pkg_info |grep xf86 lists the keyboard and mouse
drivers as already installed. 

When I type dmesg|grep pci it lists the address for the card as a
vgapci.

Which log message or system file do you need me to send?

 

                              
                            
                            
                          
                        
                      
                      

                    
Xorg.0.log with logverbose set to 9.

-Nathan

                    

I did startx -- -logverbose 9 -logfile /var/log/Xorg.0.log

                    

And sent the results to http://slexy.org/view/s2IF73TSxW

                    

Thanks for helping me through this.

                    
                  
                  
                
              
            
            

          
Add "AllowEmptyInput" "Off" in your "ServerLayout" section?

-Nathan

          

Okay, I fixed the log error.  My apologies about that. What remains is
"no screens found.'

I also restarted dbus and hal.

          
        
        
      
    
  
  


Is it actually loading the r128 module? The last log you sent didn't
have it. You may also get better luck asking on freebsd-x11@

-Nathan


I've joined the x11 list and sent the links .
Thank you for helping me through this.

 
Here is the entire conversation with links.
