Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG X-To-Unsubscribe: mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org "unsubscribe questions" We are installing FreeBSD and XFree86 in our lab in Polytechnic U. for mbone purpose. Our purpose is to run XWindows under more true color ( 24/32 bits color depth ). We tried Diamond Stealth 3D 2000 Pro, XF86Config detected the card and sucessfully loaded XServer using XF86_SVGA driver. But once we changed the driver to XF86_S3V, XServer cannot be loaded. What card should we use to have 24/32 bits color in XWindows? Do you have video card compability list for XWindows? Or can you make any suggestions? Thank you very much.
