I have looked thru and searched thru the archives for some help with this
issue (and google as well).  I have installed the stock 4.6 distribution on an
hp quad-core with interated nVidia GeForce 9100/Cuda graphics with all the
defaults except I have enabled X.  I have checked the machdep.allowaperture
and it is set to 2.  And uname -a = openBSD hpq4.my.domain 4.6 Generic.MP#81
amd64.  It does report that the nVidia chipset is unknown in the output of the
booting.  I have tried X -configure and set it to my monitor's settings and to
various presets.  When I do startx it reports that "Fatal server error: no
screens found".  I have tried using the nVidia generic driver in the
configure.  In the X configure I have also tried using the vga driver, but
that results in "Failed to load module "vga" (module does not exist, 0) No
drivers available".  I loaded 2 linux live CDs (backtrack and centos 5) and
they start up a graphical environment by
 default.  I would
 just like to use openBSD with a standard graphical environment.  The ethernet
connection comes up fine and adding drivers thru this is an option.


Run Xorg -configure -retro to start.
