I asked a similar question earlier and got the response...X1600's are unsupported. Does your X1600 show up in dmesg, mine doesn't. I would think that whether or nor Xwindow System supports it doesn't matter until FreeBSD actually detects the card. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
