I am having the folloing problem on my freebsd machine: I installed freeBSD 3.2 from CD. All works fine except for the Xserver. I ran the setup from /stand/sysinstall and entered all the information to the best of my knowledge. But when I type startx I get this distorted X I have tried various other options with the setup, I have even installed a different video card. ( trident and also SiS ) But i still pretty much get the same type of screen. Changing the options just gives me different colours. My specs are as follows: Intel pentium meccer 14" monitor ( no label for sync rate ) serial mouse 101 key board trident TGUI 9440 -3 video card Thanks for your time Mark To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
