Hi All,
I am having a real problem setting up X under FreeBSD 5.3 on a Acer
Travelmate 280 laptop.
The laptop uses the Intel onboard i810 video controller, I know Xorg has
issues with this controller from past experience, so I added the necessary
line to my /etc/make.conf and proceeded to build
I have used XFree86 on this laptop before, however that was using

5.2.1 and it worked fine.
hmm, how did you configure it back then ? :)
Exactly the same way.
And it also works fine on my desktop machine (that

Does anyone have any ideas

Hi All,
I'm not to familiar with what goes on behind the scenes during the FreeBSD
install process. So please forgive me if this is a dumb question.
Is there any way to install FreeBSD without gcc and later build from the
ports tree, to enable me to keep upto date with the gcc project releases.
I have win modem on my comp. can I use it with FreeBSD, maybe I have
to download some driver?
Have you checked the list of supported hardware on http://www.freebsd.org ?
You would be far more likely to get a response if you posted the make and
model of your modem, and the chipset it uses.
