Actually, I'm just using it for a couple of days. After years of Linux I decided I needed a real fast and secure system... Currently I'm trying to setup X on a Sis 6326 chipset on an old SVGA monitor using FreeBSD 4.2 (full install). Somehow it doesn't work. I used xf86config (because XF86Config didn't work, it couldn't start the default X server....) to configure. I did this loads of times in my life but somehow now it doesn't work. When I try to start X (using startx as user root) I get: (--) SVGA: Mode "480x300" needs hsync freq of 39.56 kHz. Deleted. (--) SVGA: Mode "480x300" needs hsync freq of 48.00 kHz. Deleted. (**) FontPath set to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/" Fatal server error: xf86OpenConsole: KDENABIO failed (Operation not permitted) If needed I can send more details of my system. (f.i. the compelte X output) Regards, Pim Bliek bliekp@cable.a2000.nl P.S. I posted this to freebsd-newbies by accident (I'm a newbie ;-). Sorry for the crosspost.
