What do you want to tell me with this sentence? Don't you like to be compared with linux? Well, if the same configuration runs on linux and not on a FreeBSD system then it can be a configuration error or a bug. Well if there are difference people always will compare. I compared those system to show that it can't be a hardware error because it runs with other systems. > FreeBSD developers do things in their spare time and they want other > people to respect that.

Well what do you want then? You're on the one hand whining that people don't post bug reports and on the other hand you say: "Go away and ask other people". I didn't want configuration support but wanted to show that there is an ERROR!!! > Skipping to another card is short-term thinking.

I tried to participate but everybody just told me that I'm an idiot. Well perhaps they're right but if nobody wants to hear my bug report then I'll use another card. A card which driver has been better tested and where gifted programmers did the bug reports.
