Hallo!
I just installed OpenBSD in the above old Laptop.
I get a console with text mode, and very unsharp fonts in Xorg.
Does this mean no KMS? Does someone perhaps have a tip to fix
the unsharp fonts?
Below is Xorg.0.log and dmesg.
Thanks in advance
Rodrigo.
For the records, I get something more usable with the following
in /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
Section "Device"
Identifier "nv"
Driver "vesa"
EndSection
Perhaps have someone a better solution?
