hi
dell optiplex gx150, ati all in wonder 128 pro vid card, fbsd4.5
i went through my first install last night, and i managed to get fbsd installed. however i have a problem with xfree86 - note that i successfully configured x
using the graphical xfree86 configuration tool during the install - sysmouse, standard keyboard, 8514 compatible monitor, for the card i used mach64, since that's what i saw in fbsd's initial hardware detection during the first part of the install, set it to 1024x768 16mb, i was able to see x windows during the install but skipped configuring x using vidtune.
now, the machine boots successfully, but i can't startx as root or regular user. the message i get is fatal server error: no valid modes found.
i am attaching my xfree86config. note that the ati all in wonder is the second vid card in this machine. i had an onboard intel 82815 that wasn't fbsd compatible, so i added the second agp card.
anyways, here's my config. if anyone can tell me what i'm doing wrong i'd really appreciate it. thanks
