So which X server are you using? The XFree86 FAQ (http://www.xfree86.org/FAQ/#Trio3D) says.. Q.F18- Is a server for the S3 Trio3D, Trio3D/2X or the S3 Savage3D or the Savage4 available? XFree86-3.3.5 supports all these chipsets as part of the SVGA server. Please note that S3 Savage3D support was not tested and Savage4 support is currently restricted to Linux and the Intel Platform. So you should be using the XF86_VGA16 or XF86_SVGA server. According to the card list, it's VGA16, according to the FAQ it's SVGA, so I'm assuming both should work. If you're not using either one of those servers, try one. -- - Jim Mock - jim@blues.ghis.net - systems administrator - ghis.NET - - work: http://www.ghis.net/ - personal: http://www.ghis.net/~jim/ - - FreeBSD 'zine: http://www.freebsdzine.org/ - jim@freebsdzine.org - - The FreeBSD Project -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/ - jim@FreeBSD.org - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
