I've installed FreeBSD 4.4 from the CD-ROM included in my FreeBSD =
Unleashed book (I installed 4.4 instead of 5.0 because it's supposedly =
more stable; 5.0 is a pre-release snapshot.). When I try to do the X =
Server configuration stuff, the server won't start and, consequently, =
X-Windows won't start. My video card is CinePak Codec by Radius, Inc. =
and my monitor is a 15" ASTVision 4i (Intel (r) 82810 graphics =
controller with 4MB memory, screen refresh rate of 60 hertz, resolution =
is 800x600, and 24 bit color quality. For the card option, CinePak =
doesn't show up in the list of potentials. Can you tell me what I might =
be doing wrong in my attempt to configure X server ? By the way, I have =
FreeBSD installed in a primary partition on a system on which I also run =
Windows XP Professional with Boot US boot manager. I'd appreciate any =
information that you can provide. Thank you.
