Notice the area in bold. I can't see bold in my email (ascii only) but I assume you meant this: > agp0: <VIA Generic host to PCI bridge> mem 0xfc000000-0xfdffffff at devic= e=20 > 0.0 on pci0 > pcib1: <ACPI PCI-PCI bridge> at device 1.0 on pci0 > pcib1: could not get PCI interrupt routing table for \\_SB_.PCI0.AGP_ -= =20 > AE_NOT_FOUND > pci1: <ACPI PCI bus> on pcib1 > pci1: <display, VGA> at device 0.0 (no driver attached) Which indeed indicates a problem. > Are you running 5.0 or 4.7 bsd? 4.7, but on a non-ACPI motherboard. Can you try disabling ACPI? Maybe the problem goes away then. You can disable ACPI by adding the line hint.acpi.0.disabled=3D"1" to /boot/loader.conf, and rebooting (I haven't actually tried this as I don't have a -CURRENT machine at hand but it should work). > This toi me would indicate why i can't get dual head working if the kerne= l=20 > has not loaded the proper driver for the > PCI card. Is yours an PCI based G450 card or an AGP on the motherboard ch= ip? Hmm I *thought* it was a PCI card but I didn't really see the big fat 'AGP' in my dmesg at the time. I need to check it at home (it's my home workstati= on). I don't see why it would make a difference though. You don't really need a driver for the card per se, that's only needed for 3d graphics acceleration, but the pci detection message should show 'Matrox MGA G400' somewhere. BTW, please keep the list in the loop, it may help others with the same problem. --Stijn --=20 The most reliable proof that there are extraterrestrial intelligent lifeforms out there is that nobody actually tries to get in contact with us. -- Dirk Mueller --rQ2U398070+RC21q Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE+fuW7Y3r/tLQmfWcRAunnAKCZEPfHE9R+EpzKctfn0l9jMgMufwCglnUz HXuW52D51FinNyxjc5mxh+Y= =pUrX -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --rQ2U398070+RC21q-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
