I used to have FreeBSD-4Stable up until a week ago, which I decided to reinstall to version 5 after hitting problems updating to the latest Gnome. I've tried using the same settings for depth / resolution that "just worked" using XFree86, but the screen just starts to look as if its going to "melt" with the strange look the tft screen takes on after running startx. Here's the screen section with the XFree86 settings that used to work in FreeBSD-4Stable: Section "Device" ### Available Driver options are:- ### Values: : integer, : float, : "True"/"False", ### : "String", : " Hz/kHz/MHz" ### [arg]: arg optional #Option "pci_burst" # [] #Option "fifo_conservative" # [] #Option "fifo_moderate" # [] #Option "fifo_aggressive" # [] #Option "pci_retry" # [] #Option "NoAccel" # [] #Option "set_mclk" # #Option "show_cache" # [] #Option "HWCursor" # [] #Option "SWCursor" # [] #Option "ShadowFB" # [] #Option "Rotate" # [] #Option "VideoKey" # #Option "ByteSwap" # [] #Option "Interlaced" # [] #Option "UseBIOS" # [] #Option "ZoomOnLCD" # [] Identifier "Card0" Driver "siliconmotion" VendorName "Silicon Motion, Inc."

This is what works in terms of only 600x480 in xorg: Section "Device" ### Available Driver options are:- ### Values: : integer, : float, : "True"/"False", ### : "String", : " Hz/kHz/MHz" ### [arg]: arg optional #Option "pci_burst" # [] #Option "fifo_conservative" # [] #Option "fifo_moderate" # [] #Option "fifo_aggressive" # [] #Option "pci_retry" # [] #Option "NoAccel" # [] #Option "set_mclk" # #Option "show_cache" # [] #Option "HWCursor" # [] #Option "SWCursor" # [] #Option "ShadowFB" # [] #Option "Rotate" # [] #Option "VideoKey" # #Option "ByteSwap" # [] #Option "Interlaced" # [] #Option "UseBIOS" # [] #Option "ZoomOnLCD" # [] Identifier "Card0" Driver "siliconmotion" VendorName "Silicon Motion, Inc."
