FreeBSD 6.1 / xorg - config ?

Hi

I got FreeBSD 6.1 to install fine (select 5.x in the vm options, will 6.x show up soon as an option ?)

But I'm having problems getting X11 to work properly - has anyone got X working on freebsd and willing to share their config file ?
(I'd like to get full screen 1280x800 [I have a macbook] and/or at least 1024x768 with 24 bits)

Thanks

Laurent
 
This is the modeline I used to get fullscreen X working on Linux (generated from here:

Modeline "1280x800" 83.46 1280 1344 1480 1680 800 801 804 828

Add 1280x800 to the Parallels virtual machine options, and set the color depth to 16-bit in the X config file.

It didn't want to work in fullscreen at with 24-bit color, and I have been too lazy to figure out why.

In a week I'll be a proud MBP17 owner, and as a old time freebsd user, will install 6.x and test it out. If I can make it work, I'll send you my xorg.conf, so you can check out what may be wrong in yours (remember though, that mine is a MBP17''@1680x1050)
