I got X to work on my Dell Inspiron 7500 notebook, and theres a wierd bug with the X server, it seems that the left 1/2 of the screen wraps around to the right 1/3. so the middle 1/3 is all nice and clear, while the left and right 3rds are overlapping eachother, like theres two layers, but mimicing the opposite side. I've tried searching the freebsd.org site and X free groups about this, but I couldn't come up with anything that worked. If anyone else has had this happen to them, or can point me in the right direction, please do. Thank you.
