The PAO package does nothing for XFree86, alas. I cannot find a driver that will use the screen at full resolution, or any driver with acceleration. As for APM: the PAO package only support 2.2.5-Release, and I really need -current so that I can run the BSDI DOS emulator. --Brett Glass At 12:59 PM 1/10/98 -0800, Rudy Gireyev wrote: >Do you have the PAO package http://www.jp.freebsd.org/PAO installed ? > >Rudy > > >---Brett Glass <brett@lariat.org> wrote: >> >> I'm trying to install either FreeBSD 2.2-RELENG or FreeBSD-current >on an IBM ThinkPad 760E, and am failing miserably.
