Using /stand/sysintall, I created a new XF86Config using the script. I increased the resolution to 1280x1024 just in case I ever got X to boot.

I sure hope FBSD is more stable for here on. --Now to get on with my mail filtering stuff. gary (PS: I can just imagine me on my death-bed, wondering WHY... :) -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
