Okay,

How's that? Does that mean DOS is best? I think not.

In any case I chose FreeBSD 1.1 (CD-ROM release from Walnut Creack) because
I was told that it is more 'Unix' like than Linux (Who told me that? Technical
Assistance at WC). Specifically I wanted something very close to SunOS 4.1.3
did I screw up? (I've had the CD for 6 days, just long enough to get 
MS-DOS 5.0 \ Win 3.1, FreeBSD 1.1 \ XFree86, & (The BEST IMHO) OS/2 2.1 \ WPS
all co-installed and configured.

While I'm rambling on does anyone know of a good Mode setting for the
Mag DX17F in 1024x768x8bit@70Hz with one of the following dot clocks available
25.23 28.32 41.16 36.08 31.50 39.99 45.08 49.87 64.98 72.16 75.00 80.01

Thanks,
