For the life of me I cannot get XFree86 going on my new Toshiba laptop.  The
particulars:

Toshiba Tecra M1 w/ 1024MB RAM 1.70GHz P4 Centrino
- XFree86 4.3.0
- FreeBSD 4.8
- Graphics Controller:	Trident XP4m32 

I've tried XFree86 -config, but the configurations just hang the machine on
testing.  I've tried the  
following manual configuration, but can only see 1/4 of the screen, and it
appears to be in black and
white:
