My card is supposed to go to 1600x1200 at 24bits but just does not do it - I think it has to do with the memory you have for the video. Oddly, mine started working when I configured Depth 8 and Depth 16 to Modes 1280x1024 1024x768 HTH, PJ I put this on chat becuase it's a bit off topic, and it has yet to be answered on the xfree lists. I just installed fbsd 4.7 on a new box, at the prompt to configure the x server said no, and finished the install. I then ran XFree86 -configure and copied the XFree86Config to /etc/X11/. When I start X it starts okay except it will only run in 4 bit mode. Even when I try to force it to 16 bit at the startx prompt, it will default to 4. I tried to comment out the 4bit subsection the XFree will only complain that it's not there and fail to load. I know the video card and monitor will do 16 bit and 1024x768, it was on the previous install, and the box dual-boots win2000, which is using that config. I noticed there are no lines for modes in the screens subsections, so I added one to the 16bit subsection, it only breaks X again. I've included the XFree86Config at the bottom of this message.

The problem is that the chip is buggy and seems like X developers did not find how to workaround it 100%. My X kept crashing twice or more a day and then I found the final solution: another machine with another video card. But make it work and test anyway, perhaps you success using it without crashes, must test. Look for its docs (locate i810) on your filesystem and follow it.

The problem, basically, was to find the right configuration. They say just the defaults should work... heh, heh, heh if only they always worked.. :)) I cannot give you the exact stuff to enter, but if you go to the manual on the FreeBSD.org site, http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-config.html that should give you some help. Then you may have to play with the Depth and mode configuration. I tried with the graphical set up tool and it is quite ok if you can figure it out. Otherwise the other two command-line tools work just fine. Be sure you know what your horizontal and veritcal frequencies are and what modes your mo;nitor can handle. When you start X, generally there is a bunch of info on the screen if it crashes that can give you some idea of what may be wrong. I'm no expert at this by any means but I have found that if you persist with different configurations, something will usually work and give you an idea of what and where you should go. Usually the answer is there, my problem has always been to see the forest for the trees or the other way around I must add that even with all the problems I have had setting up my system, once you understand the basics, nothing beats FreeBSD - it really is easy to use the cvsup, the make world for updating, and especially the portupgrade utility. Let me know if this helps and if not, you'll have to give more detail as to what is going on on your machine.
