Dear Friends : I'm a Linux user since 1,999 and recently, I started with
FreeBSD. I have an Athlon (T-Bird) 1000, 256 Mb RAM (not DDR), 32 Mb
Savage 4, SB Live sound card and a standard (Bright 02201) serial mouse.
When I tried to install FreeBSD, I had many problems but, I did a lot of
things, until I done it ! At the last one, I discover certain video card
problems... tried a generic driver and, really works. Yeah, I don't have
video acceleration but, It's OK. When I'll save money, I'll buy a new
video card. But what I would like to say, is install XFree86 through
text mode and, try many configurations. Maybe that card that you have,
can't be the real one... I had problems with a Riva TNT2 , that I
thought that it was, but when I was install at another computer, a Vanta
model recognized ! At text mode , try a lot of configurations ! Try to
be modest, use a generic driver ! It works for me ! Maybe your mouse
have the same situation. Sincerely, Newton - Brazil
