I'm getting a warning that the HorizSync rate is outside the capabilities of my current hardware, whether I use the default (none), the values from MonitorsDB, or what other people have posted in their xorg.conf files for other Dell Latitude D610s. Why when you boot? Because I run KDE at boot. From /etc/ttys: ttyv8 "/usr/local/bin/kdm -nodaemon" xterm on secure What does the screen look like? Fine. That's not the issue, as stated several times in this thread. What does the Xorg.0.log look like? I've sent it twice.

It's definitely not here. I only see the version which was sent by Gmail. It collates my emails when I receive one I sent myself. Maybe the attachment was too big for the list, but I didn't receive any error messages or warnings.

Based on me installing from an official CD, and using the default settings for portupgrade?

As I said, I installed from the official FreeBSD mirrors. >> Try rebuilding from the Ports Collection. I've already done a portupgrade -a since I installed. -- Victor Engmark Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum videtur - What is said in Latin, sounds profound
