Thanks Matthew,

I will go in and do some edits to my XF86Config file after backing
it up.


(question)

It's an integrated SiS, 32mb video chipset and I was also
wondering the command that best works like "lspci -v" on other Unix
variants.  I wanted to get a more accurate output if the video
cards attributes as the FreeBSD operating sees it.


I did also try Netscape7 and it did the same thing.  Only two
current browser perform normally without any changes and those
are:  Opera and Konqueror

Thanks.
