The problem is with the configuration. The XFfree86 -configuration works fine if I take out the ATI card and reset the BIOS to seek the PCI slot first. Oddly, the bios cannot be changed if the ATI card is connected to the monitor - the change has to be made from the i810 card. I must say this is not a very sophisticated motherboard, at all. But it does the basic job that is demanded of it. >Did you already look into the file /etc/X11/XF86Config[-4]? >If there are more screen-resolutions metioned in the XF86Config, >and 480 is the first, just put another resolution first. I have tried several different configurations and nothing seems to want to work. I tried configuring the i810 card with a default depth of 8, with several different settings. The monitor can handle up to 1600-1200 resolution and does under Win2k. :)) What is strange is that the /stand/sysinstall graphic configuration does not function. The error message is "(WW) VGA: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:4:0) found" I do recall that, at some point, before fully installing XFree86 (the latest version), somehow I was able to run the graphic configuration and it did show the two cards, two monitors (only one installed) etc. but I did not quite understand the idea of the thing. I think I could have removed the unwanted card and monitor, but even at that time, it did not function right. As I mentioned, I can set up the i810 card alone, but it does not want to change the screen reslution from 480. I read that this module agpgart.o is required for full use of the different screen resolutions, but I cannot find anything like that on the FreeBSD site or in my computer. It may be for Linux only... :)) Phil _______________________________________________ Newbie@XFree86.Org *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie
