No. You need to compile XFree86-4 (in ports/x11/XFree86-4) and install it. You also need to run `kldload agp.ko' on startup as root, make sure /dev/agpgart exists, as well as add the necessary sections to /etc/X11/XF86Config. Check the archives for further details. -- Jonathan Chen ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.
