Which is good. Unfotunately my display is having problems. :Not nearly as much as before but still noticable and a little annoying. : :steve I can't imagine how the display problems could be related to the kernel. It sounds like a problem I've seen often on old (3+ years) video cards where accellerated modes caused snow to appear on the screen whenever the thing was bit blitting. I would mess around with the options available to you in XF86Config. Read up on the card you have in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc to see what tweaks are available. You can also try lowering the screen resolution and/or the vertical refresh rate. -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
