FBSD and Nikolas .. I think I have it scoped out more or less .. from a net bsd site .. this 0x= 7205=20 requires a UniChrome Device .. absent in Xorg 6.7 and 6.8 .. NO VIAble driv= er in FreeBSD 5.4 w/ X.org .. NOR .. with FreeSBIE 1.1 X.O 6.7 vs 6.8 ... Doubt if much QA went into X.org for FreeBSD vs the multitude of drivers fo= r less common cards/chips ..=20 Only VIAble fixes are another board or getting rid of X.org .. IT IS UNCLEA= R=20 what that requires to lose X.org and revert to XFree86_4 like my working Kn= oppix 3.4 partition. Many Thanks /Ev/ + product VIATECH VT8378_IG 0x7205 VT8378 KM400 UniChrome Integrated Graphics On 6/15/05, Nikolas Britton <nikolas.britton@gmail.com> wrote: > On 6/16/05, Ev Batey WA6CRE <efbatey@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > Nikolas > > > > Equally big failure with FreeSBIE 1.1 just d/l and tried ..
