Dear laptopers, during the honorable quest of converting my wife's laptop from win to fbsd, I came across the following problem. It's a Compaq Armada 110; everything works as it should _except_ running X just blanks the screen and freezes the machine (can't even ping it). The graphics device is Trident Microsystems CyberBlade i1 (rev 6a) Subsystem: Compaq Computer Corporation CyberBlade i1 AGP A workaround is to specify the graphics devoce driver as (generic) "vga" instead of the (Xorg -configure)'d "trident" in xorg.conf. That makes X able to start (with a ridicuslously low resolution and ugly colors). Does someone please have a working xorg.conf for this machine? Thanks Jan
