Hi folks, I'm running FreeBSD 2.2.5 on a P5/166 with 32 megs of RAM. We have a Diamond Stealth 2500 Series Video card with 2 megs of RAM. When I get SVGA X Server to load, the desktop comes up no problem. But I have vertical lines appearing all over the screen and the characters are virtually unreadable (alot of distortion). I have a 15 inch monitor capable of 1280 x 1024, whoever I've been running it in 800x600 (as well as a few tests at 1024 x 768). Its a KDS Monitor Model VS-51, VSync 50-120, HSync 28- 70, Refresh 1024x768, 85 Mhz. Anyone have any idea how to clear this problem up? I'm pretty sure the video card is working properly. Comments? Ideas? On another minor problem, I've been evaluating the different POP3 servers that come with FreeBSD ports. I've installed popper and ipop3d. Both work very well, I think I like popper better for its logging ability, but I've been unable to find any method to do any sort of configuration, or a reference to how to resolve certain errors I get from clients. (Netscape mail causes popper to report incorrect number of arguments during authentication). Any comments or pointers to resources would be greatly appreciated:) Thanks in Advance!
