>Description:
I am trying to get BSD installled on this machine as described above. 
The actual FreeBSD distribution installs OK, but it seems that no matter what
I do to XFree86, I cannot get the video to work. 
There seems to be lots of support for this using Linux, but I have found
nothing for BSD - Obviously I don't want to have to use linux, so I was wondering
if you could give me some advice??
If this is the WRONG place to ask for this, apologies for wasting your time 
and maybe you could point me in the right direction??

Thanks
Jason Farenden
