5.4-STABLE FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE #0: Tue Sep 20 15:33:58 EDT 2005 I have a 19" LCD monitor and usually run in console mode. My screen resolution is 80x25, but I'd like to get something like 120 x 60 if possible. I've played with vidcontrol, but so far can't get it to do anything useful. Also my console screen is now shifted to the left one character, but when I run startx my gui screen is shifted to the right about 1 character. My card is a nvidia card with 128 megs or ram and I have enabled vesa in the kernel and have vesa_load="YES" in /boot/loader.conf. However, I get this error in dmesg: module_register: module vesa already exists! Module vesa failed to register: 17 How can I fix these problems? thanks, Bob
