I've checked out a copy from cvs ... and have found FreeBSD 5-CURRENT's gcc doesn't like the anonymous structure use. Anyways, I compiled it, tweeked pc.c to use the cirrus driver and downloaded a CL-GD543x bios from http://www.linuks.mine.nu/ree/video/ So far, looks good... FreeBSD happily changes text modes including the VESA extended text modes. Haven't tested graphics modes yet. -- Antony T Curtis
