     The 2.2.1 Release is a bit old, and so is the X11 server included.
     
     You definitely should upgrade to a recent FreeBSD release, you'll find 
     with 2.2.6 the latest released version of XFree86 (3.3.2) which could 
     support your board.

Objet : HELP: FireGL 1000 Pro and X under 2.2.1
Auteur :  Joachim.Wunder@lrz-muenchen.de

Hello to all of you,
     
I am desperately trying to get my new Diamond FireGL 1000 Pro graphics board 
with 8 MB SGRAM to work on a ViewSonic P815 (21"-model) under FreeBSD 2.2.1 .
     
After many desperated nights I myself came to the conclusion that I need a new 
X-Server. I conclude this from http://www.xfree86.org. :"/
     
Could anyone please give me a hint or step-by-step instruction (only if 
possible!) to help me out here? I already tried any fancy combination with the 
existing XFree86 delivered with the 2.2.1 release, but the graphics board always
seems to loose sync so that my ViewSonic P815 goes into standby-mode. :"(
     
Any help will too much be appreciated!
     
TIA,
Joachim
