I am running FreeBSD 4.1 (KDE) on my GateWay Laptop. I had to manually =
enter the XF86Config code because when I go into /stand/sysinstall and =
create the file through a setup program, I still get the view of 640x480 =
(or lower), and i need 1024x768 (AT LEAST) and I got this XF86Config =
file off of the web (from sites that FreeBSD help has suggested) and get =
the error:=20
"You must provide a "Screen" section in XF86Config fot at least one of =
the graphics drivers: svga
Fatal server error:
No configured graphics devices
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shut down)
Can you Please look at the config file below and tell me what I need to =
add, I am very new with UNIX. My XF86Config file is below, thank you =
very much, my last letter I sent to FreeBSD help was responded to by the =
next day with THREE letters, I was very suprised and appericiative, and =
think highly of your Tech. Support.

about my laptop please tell me)
