As before, it gets as : far as switching video modes before it crashes. Just to say it doesn't happen to everybody. I compiled it out of the box after reading the readme which stated where to get and put ioctl_pc.h and it's been running just fine ever since. I do admit that I included PeX XTEST and all the other options, but otherwise I changed nothing. I added -DNETBSD to the bootflags for messing with sources later on just in case 386bsd does stuff that NetBSD doesn't like. I'm using 0.9. Try using the sample Xconfig supplied instead. -- Eat the rich -- the poor are tough and stringy.
