Hi, 

I have a Dell Latitude XpiCD Laptop, running FreeBSD 2.2.2, 
having neomagic video card. I am running XFree86, in VGA
mode, with 16 colors. Did anybody have success to run 
XFree86 in SVGA mode on such a machine with 256 or more colors? 

Thanks a lot. Any help will be greatly appreciated. 

Ibrahim Korpeoglu.
