Have you tried the text config in /stand/sysinstall? It does work - very well. That would be my first recommendation.Stephan Assmus wrote:So, I'm stuck. I actually installed FreeBSD to check out the Gnome and KDE desktop and use Gimp. I don't know in which direction to investigate further. Thanks for any and all help.
If still no joy - find XF86Config. It should be in /etc/X11/ It is a plain text file which you can edit as root. You will need to consult your monitor manual for its vertical and horizontal refresh rates and your video card manual for the amount of video RAM and likely video driver BUT you can set up the system exactly as you wish (which is why many of us prefer do do this rather than trust an install program).
If you don't have the manuals, surf the net - you could use Lynx in FBSD for this, or your other OS. Google invariably leads to the right places for the info you need.
