Hi Andy, Thanx for your advice.
I used nm and got the same return as yours. Also i add "ddc", this time the symbol not warning again but still core dump. I have removed Red Hat and only left its XF86Config as attached. Red Hat 9 come with XFree86 4.3.0_2. My current FreeBSD is 5.0 but XFree86 4.3.0 for BSD5.1 packages. I think it doesn't matter. (Am I wrong?) In the laptop I have tried FreeBSD 4.8 with XFree86 4.3.0 before, each time told me another symbol warning unresolved in nsc_drv.o. Symbol XAAPatternROP_PM from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/nsc_drv.o is unresolved! I love BSD and decide to use NetBSD when i got message from Alan Barrett http://news.gw.com/netbsd.ports.i386/30161 , but after when i tried to configure XF86, it told me hard to find suitable screen. I return to FB5 then. >On Thursday, June 26, 2003 9:51 am, George wrote: >> >I could install Red Hat 9 in this laptop, which X11 could works very well. >> > But never get success on FreeBSD.
