A couple of questions about 7.0-RELEASE and X11

2008-03-15 Thread Robert Chalmers
I have just installed the new 7.0-RELEASE shown on the www.freebsd.org home page ( still confused as to whether this is CURRENT or STABLE ) and trying to get X working. It doesn't appear to have xorgcfg in it anywhere? Has this handy program been abandoned? I'm running it on an old SAMTRON 5Ei

The configure program is now /usr/local/bin/xorgconfig . You might also want to try 'X -configure' , which does some hardware probing and puts a best guess configure file in /root/xorg.conf.new . The X documentation can still be a bit sketchy. Above advice came from books. Cheers, Gordon On
