thank you for your reply. I am running FreeBSD 3.3-Release which I installed Xfree86 3.3.5 I have played around with all the settings such as turning off Accelorated graphics and such and I stll get the problem.. which btw is; the windows seem to draw ok as well as the text in the title bars but the text at the prompt is solid black squares. but other than that it does seem to work. so I guess there is somthing funkey with thease motherboards (this happens on 2 differant systems) I have.. bummer their cool boards.
