Hello!

I run FreeBSD 5.0 Stable on AMD Athlon 2000+, VIA KT333 AGP 8x (4x enabled) Soltek MOBO and my problem is that XServer needs 15-20 sec. to start, no matter if I use startx from a text mode, or I boot my system directly to X. Heeeelp me guys, what can be the reason? As I indicated in the subject, I usePixelView GF4MX440 64MB and patched 3203 drivers, I got the same problem on FreeBSD 4.7...

Q: X takes a long time to start. What can I do?

A: Most of the startx delay problems we have found are caused by incorrect
data in video BIOSes about what display devices are possibly connected
or what i2c port should be used for detection. You can work around
these problems with the XF86Config option "IgnoreDisplayDevices"
(please see the description in (app-d) APPENDIX D: XF86CONFIG OPTIONS).

It's amazing what information the README has in it, isn't it?
