Hi all,

I tried to get X running on my newly installed FreeBSD system.
Downloaded latest binary, and ran XF86Setup. Everything seems to go
right, but when I start to start X with startx, I get:

	SVGA: 'clgd5428' is an invalid chipset

and I get the same message from X -probeonly

I can't figure out why it says that! The server lists clgd5428 as a
supported chipset, and my card says it is one in writing, as well as
the DOS CLMODE utility.

Can anyone suggest what to do?
