I have an ASUS P9X79 motherboard, Intel i7-3930K, Radeon HD 6840, ASUS
V228 monitor. FreeBSD 9.0(RC2).
Xorg -configure wants to use the radeon driver. I know, FreeBSD does
not have KMS. 'man radeon' talks about options for KMS and UMS, KMS
only, and UMS only.
How may I force UMS mode? I see references on how to do it with the
'other' OS, involving radeon.modeset=0.
# grep -i modeset `find /usr/src/sys -iname \*radeon\*`
produces nothing.
When I use the Vesa driver, the monitor reports some modes like
"1920x1080"x60.0.
How may I use this mode with the Vesa driver?
