Please add info about the FreeBSD release number, 2.2.7, 2.2.8, 3.0. Also add
info about yer laptop because if it used the NeoMagic chipset you might have to
upgrade to XFree86 3.3.3 to make correct use of the chipset.

Also, have ye set the PATH correctly in yer .profile? Are ye trying as an user
or as root?
