My card is a Radeon RV280. Did some reading and found I needed drm in the kernel, which wasn't there by default. Anyway after installing drm in the kernel startx worked and I got the minimal X working. So I have two questions, with no drm in the kernel, dmesg reports my card as a generic vga, after installing drm at boot time via loader.conf, the card is still not detected. Can anyone tell me why or am I missing something obvious?? Also when I exit X via the window manager, all the window decoration disappears but X won't shutdown and exit cleanly. Why might this be? Are the two things interconnected?</div>
