Hi, I have an ATI Radeon HD 2400. I fresh installed FreeBSD 7.2 for AMD64. I added the Xorg support and Gnome desktop. With the autoconfig Xserver feature, the whole system freezes. With the xorg.conf file generated by the -configure option, the system freezes too. I''ve tried several different drivers (ati, radeonhd...) but I can only bring X up with the vesa driver. Which driver is the best one (features vs stability) taking into account that I don''t want to run any fancy desktop features? How can I configure it? Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the noise PD: I could get it working with radeonhd. Cheers> > Regards > > -- > Glen Barber >
