Hi, all,
I am trying to make XF86 work on FreeBSD with Compaq LTE Elite. It is
486DX4/75, with active metrix display. I followed the mini HOWTO on LCD display and
got all the HorizSync and VertRefresh rate. But everytime I start the X server, the
system reboot with no apparent warning or error message. Any help would be high
appreciated.
Here is what I I put in /etc/XFConfig,
...
Section "Pointer"
Protocol "PS/2"
Device "/dev/mouse"
Emulate3Buttons
Emulate3Timeout 50
...
BandWidth 30
HorizSync 32.78
VertRefresh 62.91
...
Modeline "640x480" 28.32 640 680 720 864 480 488 491 521
...
Section "Device"
Identifier "WD 90C24 (laptop)"
VendorName "Western Digital"
BoardName "WD90C24"
VideoRam 1024
Chipset "wd90c24"
EndSection
...
Section "Screen"
Driver "svga"
Device "WD 90C24 (laptop)"
Monitor "My Monitor"
Subsection "Display"
Depth 8
Modes "640x480"
ViewPort 0 0
Virtual 1024 768
EndSubsection
EndSection
The following is what I get from starting X server,
