Hi,
Installed NetBSD 1.6.1 recently from iso cd image and it's up and running
nicely.
The X server is the one thing i can't seem to get running.
Looking at the docs on netbsd.org i'd say i need to configure /etc/ttys and /
etc/wscons.conf for several screens to become available, but another doc on
netbsd.org says 1.6.1 configures these things automatically.
I don't see any /dev/ttyE entries and the X server fails with no screens found
when i try to start startx. Also i don't know if the framebuffer is actually
coming up since dmesg|grep fb does not show any framebuffer.
Only dmesg|grep ATI shows :
ATI Technologies 3D Rage Pro (VGA display, revision 0x5c) at pci1 dev 2
function 0 not configured
Any pointers or ideas ?
Thanks in advance
