Multiple issues (FreeBSD 6.2 RELEASE)

[Lucas (a.k.a T-Bird or bsdfan3)]

Well, turning securelevel completely off in /etc/rc.conf fixed X, or 
sort of.   X will start up in 800x600 (which is the LCD's native 
resolution) using the vesa driver; but, when I try the trident driver, 
it refuses to run at 800x600 and tries 640x480 instead, which the LCD 
doesn't like.  Results: a black screen.  Any idea on how to fix this one?
