It works fine with 5.02.

When I reinstalled X from 5.0.1, it worked again, except that my keyboard options are still broken. I seem to remember something about directories with keymaps changing, but I don't recall the details. It may be related.How did you install 5.1? There is some changes where one file is now a directory in the xkb path: from /src/UPDATING 20090616: Native Xorg was upgraded. Builds will need a clean objdir for src/external/mit/xorg. Upgrading a system from sets will not work properly yet as the /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/pc subdirectory has been changed into a file, and this needs to be manually "rm -r"'ed before installing xbase.tgz.$ setxkbmap -option ctrl:swapcaps,compose:menu Error loading new keyboard descriptionI think I also changed a symlink, it was maybe /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/compiled pointing to /var/db/xkb but that system is not running right now so I can't check.My graphics card is vga0 at pci1 dev 0 function 0: vendor 0x1002 product 0x5159 (rev. 0x00) wsdisplay0 at vga0 kbdmux 1: console (80x25, vt100 emulation), using wskbd0 wsmux1: connecting to wsdisplay0 radeondrm0 at vga0: ATI Radeon QY RV100 7000/VE radeondrm0: AGP at 0xe8000000 64MB radeondrm0: Initialized radeon 1.29.0 20080613 which is listed in both the old and the new radeon driver as supported. Here is the failing Xorg.0.log file from 5.1, followed by a line with ====, then the working one from 5.0.1 (running on the same kernel). I'm running a custom 5.1 kernel, but the GENERIC one is not different. It looks like the broken case stops at the point where it wants to scan the PCI bus.There is a change in the PCI bus handling. Please remove the old xorg.conf and regenerate it with Xorg --configure and you will see what I mean. Bernd
