The machine was previously setup with FreeBSD 4.5 or 4.2 (I don't
remember)and an ATI Mach 64 PCI card for my X display. I decided to wipe
the hard disk and using the iso, install FreeBSD 4.7 (for fun) :). I run
the install, everything goes ok until I try to setup X. When I try to
configure video card, it seems to detect that I have an ATI card (has ati
listed in the driver window), though there are no ATI cards listed in the
card filter section. If I select the expandable driver list, I noticed that
ati is *not* listed. I'm confused. ;{ If I continue with the setup to
"configure modeline", I can only select 2 resolutions "640 x 480" and "320 x
240".
I'm probably doing something wrong with the new version of X, I never had a
problem before with this hardware and the older version included with the
older fbsd(4.2 or 4.5)
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
