So what? :) Hi Danny Thanks for your tips, some a little over my head, but a good read up today should clear things up !(I hope :)~) I will be trying them out today.I am quite new to FreeBSD (about 4 months) and wish to learn it thoroughly. I have had great success with every project I have attempted so far. I included the above as a point of interest - you say 'So the motherboard also has an onboard VGA chip So what? :)' The real interesting thing is that I have pulled the box apart, and I assure you that there is no Trio VGA card - only on-board VGA. 100% sure.Thats how it was when FreeBSD was installed - I installed myself and know that there has never been a video card in this box.When setting up X, I used the VESA driver. Wierdrz or what :) Thanks Andrew Kozak
