It seems that the X-Windows configuration problem is caused
not only by the Intel i810 chip, but also by the monitor,
Targa Multiscan TM 1480, which is rather old and probably the
system cannot ask it for necessary information.

I could achieve 640x480 display by putting "Modeline" in the
monitor section, after some experimenting.

However, mode 800x600 works badly, the image is shifted to the
left and it cannot be helped with xidtune tweaing. I tried 
several configuration variants.

Mode 1024X768 is impossible to get.

Well, perhaps it's time to say goodbye to FreeBSD after such
short acquaintance...
