There's the problem, right there.  The kernel currently has no clue how to
handle video interrupts from your display card.  Taras Ivanenko's
experimental color kernels may or may not help this situation (whether you
have a color monitor or not).  Look for them in:

	ctpa01.mit.edu:/pub/ivanenko/macbsd/

Let us know if you try this, and whether it works.

The alternative, which may not apply to your situation, is to disconnect
the monitor from the Radius display card and use the built-in video.
(This should work fine if you're able to do it.)
