I failed to configure at 2.1, and currently with 2.2.2 My grahics accelerator card uses the Tseng ET4000/W32 (PCI) and I have all of the timing charts for the monitor. The system is recognised by MS Windows 95 and works well at 1024x768 but can I get it to work on FreeBSD no way ! I noticed that their is a new setup program so I have tried just about all combinations without success. I would be obliged if someone can help to resolve this problem as I am now losing serious development time. I will pass on the timings by request. I have had to unsubscribe from freebsd-questions as the number of questions is now over 100 a day and it is masking out more important mail so please respond to me directly at Malcolm_Boff@compuserve.com Thank you in advance, Malcolm G.
