Hi, I have just installed FreeBSD 3 days ago and since than I have slept 3 or 4
hours :-))
well, let me put one of the (remaining) problems: I have Trident8900C SGVA
and X runs fine, but when I exit it, it hangs. I redirected output to a file
(startx >& x.log) and what I get is 'broken pipe...' (i think that's normal)
but then it says it can't open /dev/vga. What is it?
Next, i change mode of /dev/vga and then it doesnt say anything about it but
just gracefully hangs (as before).
What should I do? Something with /dev/vga ? X setup ?
Next small question is how can I see how much hard disc space I have left?
Thank you for your reply,
Goran
