X will start up in 800x600 (which is the LCD's native resolution) using the vesa driver; but, when I try the trident driver, it refuses to run at 800x600 and tries 640x480 instead, which the LCD doesn't like. Results: a black screen. Any idea on how to fix this one? magikman wrote: > Lucas (a.k.a T-Bird or bsdfan3) wrote: > >> Securelevel == 1 and thanks for the answer to the fourth question >> >> magikman wrote: >> >>> Lucas (a.k.a T-Bird or bsdfan3) wrote: >>> >>>> Hardware: Compaq Presario 1200-XL118 >>>> AMD K6-2 500MHz >>>> 64MB of RAM >>>> Trident CyberBlade i7 video with 4MB shared RAM >>>> 6GB ATA66 HD >>>> Linksys 10/100 PCCard Ethernet (using ed driver) >>>> >>>> OS: FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE using GENERIC kernel >>>> >>>> Issues: >>>> 1) The machine will not turn off when I try to soft-off it (ACPI S5 >>>> state, shutdown -r or -p).
