The semester is over and I've got free time again.  So I'm soliciting any
problems folks are having with XFree86 4.0.

I installed it several days ago, and after XFree86 is configured (and
FreeBSD is configured for XFree86), Fxtv seems to work pretty well.  DGA,
no problems.  (The only oddity is that full-screen zoom doesn't center the
viewport and grab the mouse).

Here's what I did:
       

  1) XFree86 -configure   (let X generate your XF86Config)

  2) kernel (works around XFree86-Bigfont...: shmat() failed errors):
        options         SHMALL=1025
        options         SHMMAX="(SHMMAXPGS*PAGE_SIZE+1)"
        options         SHMMAXPGS=1025
        options         SHMMIN=2
        options         SHMMNI=256
        options         SHMSEG=128
 
  3) Mod XF86Config
     a) Configure Monitor and FontPath's to taste
     b) Add "DefaultDepth 16" (or other) to Screen section
     c) Set up Weight and Modes preferences for the DefaultDepth.


Then just "startx".  No -cc 4, visual specs, other req'd.
