Actually, I'm finding out that after running X in 8bit VESA mode for a while that I get a nasty freeze when I try to log off (after running in locked screensaver mode). The machine locks up so bad, it has to be power-cycled. Not good. ...TC -----Original Message----- From: d.wylie@hccnet.nl [mailto:d.wylie@hccnet.nl] Sent: Thursday, October 23, 2003 12:30 AM To: TCoulter@novatel.ca Cc: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org; TCoulter@novatel.ca; Tomi.Vainio@Sun.COM Subject: RE: XFree86 on Toshiba Tecra M1 I have a pressario laptop with a Cyberblade i1 which has a nasty freeze running X. Will try 8bit VESA to verfiy this is causing the freeze. Could some-one give me a pointer to that Trident driver info/problem so I don't have to bug the list. Thanks.
