A > project called XFree86 does. See www.xfree86.org This is true for the Intel platform. However, for the Alpha platform not every video card will allow the system to boot.

Does anybody know of a list of video cards that work with an Alpha? Paul Smith To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
