I'm using NetBSD 1.5 on a Dell OptiPlex GX110, with i810
video-on-motherboard. I'm using XFree86 4.0.2 with a package I got from this
list(agppart.o?). Recently, when i "startx", my screen "flashes" once a
while(it's like a lightening from inside my screen, with a sound,seems the
hardware is not funcationing well), then i return to text mode, but this
morning i found the same problem under text mode, i'm scared to death and
switched to linux &window nt(multiboot system), but all my stuff is really
on NetBSD, what should i do?
for the screen, i configured the frequency--vertical and horizontal
correctly, i believe.
save my life...
p.s. DMESG output:
