Yes, I should think so. Again, XFree86 as delivered with FreeBSD 4.5 and earlier run fine on the same exact machine with no changes in hardware. The problem only occurs beginning with FreeBSD 4.6 when the individual X servers were bundled together, and it continues to fail on FreeBSD 4.7. Furthermore, searching the archives I find that other people have the same problem beginning with the FreeBSD 4.6 CDROM on different hardware. Paul Paul A.
