Setup:

FreeBSD 4.6R, XFree86 4.2.0, 15" Daytek monitor, 8MB RIVA TNT2 Vid, newer
Logitech two button wheel mouse (wheel is a button, sort of).

Configuration:

Initially tried to setup via the GUI Config for XFree, but kept on locking up when I
tried to select a different mouse (ones that were associated with Logitech) and was
not loading the screen resolution/refresh rates correctly for the monitor.

So I moved onto the script based config, which was much slicker. Typed in the
Logitech Mouse, (and tried a few others), selected the keyboard as a Keytronics
something (I am away from the machine right now, so I do remember exact name),
but I could not see the rest of the list of keyboards from approx 6- to 1.

Typed in my monitor settings (via
http://www.si87.com/MonitorSolutions/daytek/dt1531.html),
Video card (no probs there, I know it is a TNT2), etc.

#startx

Loads up, but I only see a quarter of the screen, and moving the mouse around
does not really affect the position of the screen. I recall saying NO to XFree
allowing
me to use a larger resolution and just have the mouse affect the screen position.
How can I confirm this is disabled?

How do I specify when startx is executed to run at a certain resolution or colour
depth. I did not see exactly what I was looking for in the man page for this type
of specification.

Thank you for our time and assistance!
