Question FreeBSD 7.1 Ati Xpress 200M Xorg 7.4 problem

Hi all,
Yesterday I installed FreeBSD 7.1 i386 with no problem. I installed just the base, sources and docs.
Next:
Code:
#portsnap fetch extract
And afther I rebuilded world and the kernel using this make.conf
Code:
CPUTYPE=athlon64
CFLAGS= -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe
COPTFLAGS= -O
INSTALL=install -C
using the handbook way.
In the kernel I commented the drivers for the components that I don't have and added
Code:
options VESA
options SC_PIXEL_MODE
For now no problems.
I installed Xorg:
Code:
#cd /usr/ports/x11/xorg
#make configure install clean
and still no errors.

When I did a
#startx
I see what I am supposed to see ( the curosr and those windows etc ) but it freezes. Even with Ctrl+Alt+Backspace is still frozen. Afther using Ctrl+Alt+Backspace I switched to Atl+F2 and then back to Alt+F1. The output is identic with xorg.0.log but it remains frozen, and not switching back to the console.

The xorg.conf is ok. The xorg.0.log gave me some error regarding drm so I included the drm module in xorg.conf but it still freezes. ( afther kldloading it of course )

The machine is a Dell Inspiron 1501n with AMD Turion TL-50.

Do you guys know what the problem can be ?

PS: I will post later the log files and the xorg.conf. But until that please give me your opinion.

Radu
