I believe something is wrong here but We have a S3 Trio3D
vga card here and it does not work with X! with both 3.3.4 and
3.3.5 Versions! but with linux it works fine! and when I copy
the conf file generated by XF86Setup program to FreeBSD from Linux
then it still does not work! I believe it is supposed to work 
with the same hardware and conf file since the resolutions
and frequencies are defined in the file! and also we use the
same version of X in both linux and FreeBSD

So does it mean that I should install Linux? or does anybody
have a solution?
