My video card is made by Headland Technologies, and I've discovered, in a web search, that the company was bought out long ago and I could not find specs for this thing. As per the X86 faq, I set the video card to "unsupported vga," and that seemed to work, only the windows are now too large for the screen. In other words, the windows kind of run off the edge, so I can't see the edges of my desktop. My monitor settings are correct though. as i'm not in an economic position to get another video card at this time, I'll have to stick with the one I've got. please help! oh yah, am running freebsd 2.2.7 thanks, alissa To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
