System installs fine, but I tried starting Xorg with its automatic config (can't remember the command but it's in the handbook)--gave me some funky colored vertical lines and locked up. Had to reboot, Ctrl-Alt-Bksp wouldn't kill it. Changed the driver to "vesa" in the config and tried it again, and then I got a greenish flickering display. Don't know what to try to fix this one. I'm brand-new to BSD but I've been with Linux for 3-4 years now, so I kinda know my way around. -- Immanuel Kant but Kubla Khan. 73, Mike KCØTQX
