Friends,

          I have tried to install Freebsd on my laptop at least twelve times, the only problem I encounter is with xfree86. here is a quick rundown of the scenario: everything goes as planned until I reboot, then type startx and each time I get the same error message (xfree86 crashed) well, not in those exact words but you get the message. I have read as much documentation as I could as far as Freebsd and the x-window-system are concerned. here are the specs on the laptop I desperatly want to install Freebsd on:   

                                      IBM T21.
                                      2647-8BU
                                      Generic flatpanel LCD monitor 1024 X 768
                                      8 MB video memory
                                      Savage IX driver <(BSD detects this)
                                      TFT-active matrix
                                       14.1 in.

         Please, If someone could just email me a little more information on how to set the specifications for X on my model I would greatly appreciate it. 

                                                                                      Thank you for producing FREEBSD!            ajaxmunroe at yahoo.com
