Hello, I just installed FreeBSD 7.0 on a Dell Vostro 1200. It has Intel's GM965 chipset and I cannot get X to work at the right resolution of 1280x800. I updated and reinstalled the x11-drivers/x11-video-i810 and x11-drivers/x11-intel ports. But X still dies whenever I tell it to use "i810" driver. I am using vesa which gives me 1024x786. The following two places suggest that FreeBSD 7.0 supports GM965 chipsets: [1] http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/cvs-src/2007-July/080677.html [2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_GMA What should I do to get the proper drivers and get X working? Thanks, Nishita -- http://nishita.50webs.com/
