    I just set up FreeBSD 5.0 on my PC and am configuring
    XFree86. Thus far everything is peachy except for one
    thing - all of the visual elements when I start X (the
    windows, the fonts, etc) appear huge on screen to the
    point where they're not really unusable. It looks like
    the screen area was set to 640 x 480 when it should be
    1024 x 768, but I'm having trouble figuring out why
    this is happening. The only error message I've found
    shows up when I shut down X, it reads:

    xauth: (argv):1: bad display name ":0" in "remove"
    command

    I've also been pouring through the Config file, but I
    haven't seen anything that looks like a culprit. My
    monitor settings are as follows:

    Identifier "NEC Monitor"
    HorizSync 31.5 - 60
    VertRefresh 56.2 - 75.1
    DisplaySize 304 228

    Any help on this would be much appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Alex
