I have a Riva TNT based card myself (STB 4400) using the XF86_RIVA binary on the net which is a.out and works just great. 1600x1200x32 is no problem with this beast. :) > Amazingly, the server actually starts up and seems to run ok (window > manager, xterm prompts start, etc), but I immediately am almost flooded by > kernel messages "calcru: negative time of -48128 usec for pid 342 (xterm)" I think this is a different symptom of a different (kernel) problem but I don't know enough about the new clock code to suggest remedies. Perhaps phk or Mike will speak up. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
