Sofar this fails miserably with Mach64 based cards (both ISA and PCI). Starting X gets me straight to the >>> SRM prompt. I also tried using a S3 765 based card and in that case a X -probeonly gives me 'machine check while in PAL mode'. Cute.. This is 4.0-RC2, with the card in a 64 bit PCI slot (before the PCI bridge). Putting it in a 32 bit slot (behind the bridge) gives me a straight reboot. Suggestions are welcome, I like this thing to demo at Jordan's visit to Holland next saturday. Obviously it would be nice if it worked a bit better then ;-) -- Wilko Bulte Arnhem, The Netherlands http://www.tcja.nl The FreeBSD Project: http://www.freebsd.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
