Hi,
  I have just installed FreeBSD 4.10 - Release on my laptop Compaq Presario 2132.
  Everything's working fine, but I have a couple of doubts.
1. My console does'nt cover the entire screen of my laptop. It only appears in a middle rectangular area of the screen. How do I fix this to cover the entire screen??? Some people directed my to run the 'diagnostics check' in my BIOS. But my BIOS does not have diagnostic checks. Is there another way?

2. Whenever I boot into ACPI enabled mode, I can't configure my mouse to work? Whats the reason for this? How can I work this, i.e. the ACPI and the mouse together?

Thanks,
Nikhil.
