Sorry for the subject. My backspace seems to be messed up.
I have a problem with XFree86 3.3.2 on a NEC Versa LX with an ATI 3D RAGE
PRO LT video chip. (I'm using FreeBSD 2.2.6 with the pcvt console driver).
When I start X with startx -- -bpp 32, X starts up fine and I can see the
screen but on the right of the screen, there are horizontal lines going
down to the bottom of the screen (not on the whole screen, but on about
1/4th of it) and anything dragged in that area cannot be seen.
(Also, when I have my X cursor near that region, I see a mirror immage of
it with a little white box before it in that region).
Here's my XF86Config:
