Hi,
When I configured my XFree86 for my FreeBSD, and started it by startx,
the screen seemed to be wrapped horizontally to left by 5-6 pixels and
the extreme portion wrapped to extreme right portion.
I used "vidtune" and found out that if I select "EarlySC" button and test
it, the problem is solved, and when I selected "show" button, it showed
me following lines...
--------
"1024x768" 85.00 1024 1028 1148 1360 768 784 787 823
EarlySC "1024x768" 1
-------
The first line is there in my XF86Config file as
modeline "1024x768" 85.00 1024 1028 1148 1360 768 784 787 823
But I need to update the file so that the second line ( EarlySC ... )
is included, but I don't know what prefix I should use ( like "modeline" in
first line ) and also don't know where this line will go even with that
prefix ...
If anyone knows about this, please tell me.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Miten.
