Server aborting. It doesn't say anything about "missing screens" or anything like that? That's what it said when I tried it. Anything salient in /var/log/XFree86.*.log? BTW, I'm no longer having problems running 4.1.0. I'm running it right now, under KDE 2.1.1 with anti-aliasing turned on. It's a little ripper. Well, the monospaced font is a little hard to read, but it looks really cool! > | What sort of display hardware are you using? > Chips and Technologies 65555 on a Toshiba laptop The mailing lists suggest that the Chips & Techs module might not like some of the video ROM shadowing, so you might consider turning that off, and generally futzing with the the BIOS setting as they relate to video. > Hmmm.

There, now it's related to the list. ;-) IMO, the problems I had before, and the problems you're having now, suggest that we should not merge XFree86 4.x into -STABLE. It still seems to have some bugs to shake out. -- Cheers, William Richard wdr@tdl.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
