I've found a page which is describing how to use X with NM2380 (NeoMagic NM256XL+). See http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~and1000/vaioF-series.html From this page, there are some reports that selecting the chipset to be NM2200 (256AV) and reducing the VRAM to 4M will make the X work. There is no explanation about a version of XFree86, but it seems to be 4.0 from XF86Config. > Other than X not working, how do you like the SR5K Vaio? What chipset do > they use for sound? I suppose the modem is a win-moden, no? I've already orderd PCG-SR7K, so I'm very interested in this topic too :-) -- Akira Funahashi/[funa@funa.org] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
