Hi there, I've spent the last two days trying to get X to run on my new Dell C400 laptop w/ FreeBSD. I was successful in getting X to start in 1024x768x8, but not higher. I've read that others have been able to get 1024x768x24, and I hope someone on this list might be able to help me out. My xf86config: http://catacus.com/~catz/docs/help/vesa_xf86config Log: http://catacus.com/~catz/docs/help/XFree86.0_log I did notice this entry in the log file: Total Memory: 13 64Kb banks (0M) What do I need to do to get X to see more memory? I've patched both i810_drv.o & agpreg.h w/ the i810diff & i810diff-2 patches. Here's the output from dmesg: http://catacus.com/~catz/docs/help/dmesg What am I missing? Any help is appreciated. Thanks! -Catherine Liao Sr. Systems Administrator IRT, School of Medicine Stanford University To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
