I have just installed the 2.2.5 ver of freebsd and all is well except for Xwindows. When I enter XF86Setup and enter my monitor and card settings it CAN, yes can, start the X server in 800x600 resolution. But, when I run startx it goes to 800x600 x 1000 little black lines that go up and down all the time. I've tried almost every possible modeline that might fit my monitor (a handarex crystal) but I can't make the black lines go away. So I thought that if I tried to run X the way XF86Setup does when it tests the server it might work. Does anyone know how XF86Setup starts the X server after the message " attempting to start server? " Thanks in advance ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe questions" in the body of the message
