Help? To: questions@freebsd.org Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Mr Technician Guru, I have FreeBSD 2.1. I've installed it several times with the same result...it crashes every time I run X WIndows and leave just a screensaver on. It freezes everytime and the only way to recover it is by turning it off and on again. I have done the -c at booting and deleted all the devices that were not pressent and others causing conflicts. I did configure X windows with the videocard I have (Diamond Stealth 64 Video) It runs but it crashes. Can you suggest where can I go for help? The machine is a Penitum 120 Mhz, with 16 Mb RAm and 512 cache. Also after installing, the machine does not "see" the cdrom. What is the right way to make the system "find" the cdrom again? Thanks in advance, Carlos Smith
