Fxtv

Sat May 1 01:50:11 PDT 2004

Dear Friend 

Thank you very much for the prompt reply.

After receiving your email, I used my spare blank hard
disk and install FreeBsd4.8 from new.

I managed to get the Fxtv running under FreeBsd4.8
now. It seem as the new graphical interface on Xfree86
configuration is not working correctly. 

However Fxtv although is running now, it looks a bit
jerky. 

I also noticed that when I start the Fxtv application,
the following message is display on the screen. 

Here is the messge:
----------------strart of message-----------------
# fxtv
Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DGA" missing on display
":0.0".
Direct Video not supported by visual...using XImages
----------------End of message---------------------

I am wondering if you get anything like this on your
P.C.

During the Fresh installation of FreeBsd4.8, I used
the ALT+F1 and ALT+F2 key to monitor what is been
installing from the cdrom. 

I noticed that during installation of XFREE86
libarary, there are number of configuration file which
look as it did no install properly. 

You will not be able to see this, unless you use
ALT+F1, ALT+F2 to change to textual mode.

I am wondering if you have exprienced anything like
this or not.

Here is the out put of my dmesg:
