Description D. P. Kreil 2001-09-02 02:00:01 UTC
xf86cfg started without any command line parameters
does not find the default XF86Config file (/etc/X11/XF86Config).
xf86cfg -xf86config XF86Config does find it but dies on an
Illegal instruction after displaying its window and printing the text:
bash-2.05# xf86cfg -xf86config XF86Config
Module ABI versions:

        XFree86 Server Extension : 0.1

Illegal instruction (core dumped)

How-To-Repeat: cvsup /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile
cd /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-4
make install clean
# variant: no XF86Config exists, run from cons25
xf86cfg					# for core dump
# variant: a working XF86Config exists, run from xterm
xf86cfg -xf86config XF86Config		# for core dump
xf86cfg					# for "Cannot to open config file."

I can verify this problem exists on a fresh installation of freebsd.  
I am running -current though, but the originator is not.

Is this still a problem in 4.2.1?  If so, could you send me copies of
/var/log/XFree86.0.log?
