I just installed 4.7 on a new machine and all seems well except the XFree86 is only working on the default VGA mode.
Configuring X is a complete nightmare, am I missing something ? I haven't a clue what sync rates my monitor has and have no manual for it., also I intend moving the server to a new office where it will be attached to a different monitor. I've tried selecting various options from the various menus but all that happens is my screen blinks and I have to reboot and try again with the same result. Apart from the fact it doesn't work, does it generate an error log somewhere so I can try and work out the problem ? Is there no standard config which would allow something better than VGA. I don't need to squeeze the last drop of performance out of the monitor/graphics card, just get something useable up and running. I've been installing & using FreeBSD for about 6 years now and have never gained any confidence in installing X, it either works or it doesn't. This must put off loads of potential users , particularly those such as myself who don't know (or much care) about what chipsets & stuff they have.
