I have a system running FreeBSD 4.5 w/ an ASUS A7N266-E motherboard
with the integrated VGA adapter, using the NVIDIA GeForce2 logic. The
system has 512MB RAM.
I run XFree86 -configure and it seems to work. I get the attached
XF86Config file. It all looks OK. The output from
`XFree86 -verbose 9 -configure` is also attached.
If I test w/ `XFree96 -verbose 9 -xf86config /root/XF86Config.new` it
crashes the system. The display flickers one time and freezes. The
system cannot be pinged, it does not respond to "Caps Lock" or any
other keyboard action. The only way out is Reset.
The log file is lost, so there are no error messages.
There are no modelines in the config file, but, that only has to do
with the monitor. It should not crash the system.
I think I am missing something simple. What can I do to debug this
problem?

XFree86 detected your mouse at device /dev/mouse.
Please check your config if the mouse is still not
operational, as by default XFree86 tries to autodetect
the protocol.
Your XF86Config file is /root/XF86Config.new
To test the server, run 'XFree86 -xf86config /root/XF86Config.new'
