I am using an mga matrox millenium... Under what circumstances? People, please, if you're going to report a problem don't just say "Well, it didn't work on my system. Couldn't find my hardware." Such "bug reports" are totally and utterly useless to me or anyone else on this list and you might as well just not say anything at all! :-( If FreeBSD fails to detect your hardware, I need to know _what_ hardware it fails to detect. If there's some weird bug where your screen gets messed up I need to know _where_ it gets messed up and what you were doing at the time. If it fails to install, I need to know _how_ you tried to install it. These are all important details that people routinely omit from their bug reports and I'm not a psychic! :-) Thanks! Jordan
