As a newbie, I am uncertain about how much is enough concerning
information about this problem.
I've installed FreeBSD 2.2.6, on a Compaq Deskpro, with a built-in
video card, which FreeBSD reveals as an "ATI Mach64 with IBM514
Ramdac". The Monitor is a Gateway2000 EV700.
The install was working correctly, including X, at one time, except
that the /usr directory was maxed out at 103%, so I opted to reinstall
on the same machine using a larger portion the 3GB harddisk for the
/usr directory.
I think I did everything exactly like the first time, but now, when X
gets running, the display shows that there seems to be a devideing
line in the center of the display, where when the mouse is passed over
it, it disappears in the center of the screen and reemerges from
either the right or left. The left side of the display is stable as a
rock, while the right half seems to have a little flicker in it.
Frankly, I don't even know enough about UNIX, X, or FreeBSD to begin
to look for the problem.
Anyone have any suggestions?
