I am trying to get my STB Systems S3 board to run at 1024/768 with my NEC Multisync 4FG
with a virtual size of 1024/768. Has anyone gotten this combo to run? I can't get the
resolutions to come up, can't get the proper sync rate, and can't get the proper virtual
size to come up. Obviously I don't know what I'm doing, and need your expertise. I
have already modified the XF86Config file in /etc but I wind up breaking things. It
supports a 70HZ non-interlaced refresh rate if that helps.

Also, are there any MIDI sequencers for FreeBSD/X? How about kernel support? An MPU-401
driver would be sufficient.

If one doesn't exist, I'd like to write one. Are there any device names already
allocated for it (like /dev/midi maybe?)? Thanks! Please e-mail - my news delivery
system is slow.
