Hi guys!
 
I first tried installing FreeBSD from the mini.iso, however I couldn't
get XF86 working, so I tried the full install iso. I've installed
XF864.1 and run XFree86 -configure. It's detected my radeon, but now I
get 2 errors, one is that it says I only have 256kb of video memory and
it cant load the screens (I've tried changing this with xfree86
configure) and it can't detect my mouse. I've also tried XF86Setup and
put /dev/usbmouse as my mouse.but to no avail. If anyone knows what to
do to fix either problem or both, please help me :-)
 
Thanks!
-Vikas
