First of all I'm running current 5.0 so YMMV on what I tell you but there shouldn't be too much difference:-) I haven't run SuperProbe for a while, I have been using X -configure and then using the generated values to manually do a xf86config. I'm sending you a copy of my /etc/X11/XF86Config Since current uses devfs you may have to change the mouse setting but everything else should work. I'm recognizing the card as an ATI Mach64 hopefully compaq hasn't made any changes. > > Also my NIC is not detected. AFAIK compaq only uses intel pro NICS I > really can not tell why it does not see it. First be sure that you have device miibus device dc in your kernel config file. I think GENERIC has it by default if you are not used to compiling kernel. In my /etc/rc.conf I have ifconfig_dc0="inet 24.20.19.75 netmask 255.255.255.128 media 100baseTX" ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I'm not sure that media 100baseTX is necessary I haven't tried without it because it works :-). BTW, you may want to add the following in your /boot/ snd_maestro3_load="YES" For you sound card. You can load it manually if you prefer with # kldload snd_maestro3 I also have to usr mixer volume controls to get the volume up to hear the speakers. I usually set it for about 85. At first I thought that sound didn't work.;-) Provecho, ed P.S. If this doesn't get you there, I suggest that you attach the output from dmesg and X -configure, at least.
