Hi There,

I am a FreeBSD Newbie to an extreme, I attempted my first install
yesterday.  I have had Linux Slackware running on my machine for quite
some time, but decided I was up for a change.  The problem I am having is
with my video card in X, I have a Diamond Viper V550 with 16MB of video
ram, which uses the Riva128 TnT chipset.  I can't seem to find any
drivers/servers that support the card.  The best I have been able to do is
select a Diamond Viper V330, however when I start Xwin I get a horid
resolution of 320x200 (Which makes the mouse cursor about 2 inches wide).
Have you ever come across this problem before, and if so do you have a
solution I could try?

Thank you for taking the time to answer this question, I appreciate the
effort put into helping FreeBSD newbies in their quest for an ultimate OS
:)

Regards,
BoJames Molai
