Hi:

I am running a dual-boot (FreeBSD/Win 98) box with a S3 Savage 4 graphic =
card. The machine is a Intel PIII 450 MHz, the FreeBSD runnig is version =
4.0, and the XFree86 is version 3.3.6. According to the information I =
obtained from the Web, XFree86 3.3.6 should support the S3 Savage 4 =
cards with couple approrpiate drivers. However I am not able to run the =
x-windows properly and I can not change the resolution of the screen. =
(even w/ ctrl+alt+ + or -)  The resolution setting is always fixed at =
320X240.=20

I tried to re-onfigure the x-windows with XF86Setup and xf86config, and =
it does not work even though the driver is available in the library.=20

I am running out of ideas, and I am looking forward for your assistance. =


Thank you for your review and time, your support is appreciated.=20
