 Fatal server error:
 xf86EnableIO: Failed to open /dev/io for extended I/O
 
 what can be wrong ?

/dev/io has been made a module a while back.  Either load mem/io
with kldload or rebuild your kernel with an additional 
device io
device mem

in your kernel config.

 HTH,

Hi,
most likely you are running at a security level thats too high
check your  setting in /etc/rc.conf
Start it at -1 or disable it as a start.
If thats not it you might not have the device in your kernel...
add
device io and recompile.

END
