Hey all! Having a blast with FreeBSD. I got so fed up with Microsoft I decided to turn my desktop machine at work in to an X workstation. So I got FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE and I am dual booting with Win95 for those poor souls who might need to use my machine while I am not there. :-) The installation went without a hitch and I set to getting X up and running, doing the best I can with a Trident 9750 AGP card. *Sigh* That is another story.. :-/ I get XFree86 configured and tried 'startx' and it screamed and yelled about not being able to find /dev/ttyv4. Humm.. well, I just used 'mknod' to create it and it made X happy, no big deal. I was just wondering if any of you out there have run in to the same thing, or was this isolated to me, possibly something I missed in the setup?
