    Hi Nikolaj, this list isn't the right place for these
    questions. My isn't a reproach. Support questions
    should be sent to freebsd-questions@freebsd.org.
    Technical questions should be sent to
    freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org. In this case to
    freebsd-x11@freebsd.org.

    However, have you tried to run the XFree86 automatic
    configuration with XFree86 -configure command (as root)?

    For more details see the hanbook.
    http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-config.html

    See in the log file /var/log/XFree86.0.log also.
