After working with FreeBSD (at work) in a command line environment, I finally decided to load FreeBSD on a computer at home to check out the Xwindows environment. I'm happy to say that after a couple days of compiling and upgrading, I have Xfree 3.3.6 running with Gnome 1.2 Problem is.. I'm trapped in 640x480 mode! How can I get to 800x600? I've checked the config and it shows my Mach64 video card, 2 megs of ram, various mode, correct monitor type. >From what I've read, I should be able to press CTRL+ALT+Numberpad + or - to flip through the video modes... That isn't working for me at all. Let me admit that this keyboard is old... perhaps it isn't sending the correct stuff back? -Gerry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
