FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE (GENERIC) #0 & Xfree86 Version 4.2.1 / X Window System...

When starting X I get a Fatal server error:
(EE) No devices detected.
no screens found

I tried both the Fully graphical XFree 86 configuration tool & the 
Shell-script based XFree86 configuration tool.
The video card is the ELSA Gloria Synergy AGP /w 8 MB vram & the monitor 
is the Nokia Multigraph 445X 21". Attached is the XF86Config.new file 
created with the Shell-script tool.
