I am no X wizard. But if I were you I would try a different window
manager. For a nice one, try Window Maker.

Also, try runnin XFree86 4.x. You can download it from xfree86.org
(get the binary package for FreeBSD).

Hey all.  I am seeing strange behavior with XFree86 on 4.3 release.
My xterms often throw up part of a line at the top of the screen or to
the side, shifted left over the scrollbar or window border.

I am using Fvwm2-devel from the ports, and running on a system with an
ATI Rage 128, 16M video ram, and have tried resolutions of
1024x768/16bpp, and 1152x870/16bpp.  Still get the same.  I think the
XFree86 version is 3.3.3 (the current version, built and installed the
world on 7/19.

Any ideas how to fix this?

TIA
Lou
