Hi, A relative is trying to install FreeBSD on an old Dell desktop with an i810 graphics card. Xorg won't start as there is no DRM support in the FreeBSD kernel for that card (at least that I can find). Is there any way of getting a decent resolution on that card? I tried the VGA driver, but it claimed there was insufficient memory for anything other than some 320x2?? resolution which is next to useless. I'm suspecting that since it probably "borrows" memory from the main memory, without a special driver they're stuck. Anyone got ideas? Thanks, Gary
