Hello world,

I just got a brand new Toshiba Satellite 110CS notebook and
would like to try FreeBSD on it.

Since the DSTN display doesn't have a horizontal or vertical
refresh rate, I'm somewhat at a loss as to what I have to put
into /etc/XF86Config in order to get X-Windows up and running.
The same thing goes for the built-in "mouse" -- which protocol
and device does it use?

Has anyone done this before and can help me out?

Gerhard
