I suggest reading the manual on how to resolve this -- but don't expect miracles as far as ATI goes. If you don't know how to manage Xorg, I doubt you should be running -CURRENT. -- Glen Barber -- Glen Barber 570.328.0318 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

You never answered my initial question. Are the proper xorg drivers for your graphics card installed? I ask again, because I've seen several situations where non-existent or incorrect graphics drivers make X do bad/odd things when exiting -- I've experienced this situation myself. I know nothing about ATI, other than it doesn't play well with any of the OSes I use, so I don't buy it. -- Glen Barber 570.328.0318 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
