Basically, the problem is with the matrox board. Due to the very same reasons I had to upgrade my workstation (good excuse 8-) Matrox provides a mga_hal binary to support the relevant resolution and other gimmicks of that board. This binary works with xorg-6.x, but not with xorg-7.x, because there were changes in the interfaces to the low-level things. As far as I can see, there is no driver from mga for 7.x available as of now. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] +49 171 3101372 12 years to go ! _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
