Make friends and get answers to your most personal problems by NOT posting HTML to FreeBSD lists! You don't provide much information. What version of XFree86 and FreeBSD are you running? If you are running XF86 3.3.6, you need to upgrade to 4.1 as the Intel 810 is not supported by 3.3.6. R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
