I suppose it is possible. I don't have fbdevhw in the config for my other G550 attached to a 1600x1024 DVI monitor, but that one does need the mga_hal_drv.o shipped by Matrox (and the mga_drv.o shipped with Red Hat 8.0 doesn't support mga_hal_drv.o - it needs a 4.3 version). > If so, is there a way to get fbdevhw for FreeBSD? No idea. With the iiyama monitor I installed Red Hat 8.0, configured the modeline and it just worked - I haven't needed to do anything else. -- Dr. Andrew C.
