X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 08 Jan 2004 03:07:04 -0000 Hi list, I have a dim recollection (and a CD) of using commercially produced X drivers (by XI Graphics) in FreeBSD 2.x and maybe 3.x I called XIG and they do not offer drivers for 5.x. I am dissatisfied with the graphics performance I am getting with a brand new ViewSonic UltraBrite A90f+ and a GeForce II card with 128Mb RAM ... there is fuzziness and also visible 'trembling' in the corners. Is there a commercial X driver for FBSD 5.x ? Or, is the problem with KDE or something else? Anyone have similar experience? Thanks, - nick -- _________________________________ Nick Tonkin {|8^)> information management systems and custom software development http://www.tonkinresolutions.com
