Many advanced thanks and free > virtual beers. > I have a semi-working configuration of xorg now running FBSD 6.2 on the Dell Latitude D820 (NVidia Quadro NVS 120M GeForce Go 7400 512MB). I am able to run the laptop's built in display at the correct resolution and 24 bit color (forget my mindless request for 32 bit color). I copied/modded a ubuntu xorg.conf that supposedly did everything I needed to get this far. Issue #1 I have an external LCD display (1280x1024) attached that I would like to use (when at my desk anyway) as a 2nd display (this works just ducky in Windows XP). This still doesn't work and xorg doesn't seem to see make it available. Issue #2 I have installed/prodded/kicked the synaptics touchpad driver but it still doesn't work. It always comes up in dmesg as a glidepoint PS/2 mouse and xorg won't recognize it as anything but a PS/2 mouse which is unusable as the slightest touch sends the pointer sailing across the screen. I did manage to get an external USB mouse to work in the meantime but there's an minor issue with that as well (issue #3) Issue #3 the USB mouse when attached autostarts moused which makes it not work in X for some reason. If I kill moused it works just fine. I am have moused_enable=NO in /etc/rc.conf so I am not sure why it autostarts this anyway.
