Dell E6510 Video issues

Hiya,

I've taken this to the PCBSD and FreeBSD forums but nobody responds so I'm hoping someone will at least point me in the right direction.

I'm running PCBSD 10.1. My Dell Latitude E6510 uses the Intel agp0 Ironlake chip and as recently as PCBSD 10.0, it worked find when the laptop is docked and I'm using my external monitor (HDMI).

Now, however, I can only do this in VESA mode. When I boot with the Intel driver, the screen will go black, with a white cursor in the upper leftmost corner and my mouse pointer will freeze toward that corner. Works fine in either mode if I'm not docked.

I assume this is a problem with Xorg though perhaps it's the new vt(4). At any rate, I'm wondering where to start looking.

I booted normally, let it fail, then booted VESA and have an xorg.0.log.old.

For the entire log, please check this link:
