pkg_radd modular-xorg-drivers?

As well as:

modular-xorg-fonts

modular-xorg-libs

IF the modular-xorg-server has not pulled them as depends.


ls /var/db/pkg/xf86-video-* will list 'em.

OTOH - not all vid cards have finished drivers.

I'm in VESA mode on one box with 1680x1050 screen until a newer 
VIA/S3-Unichrome is tuned-up.

OTOH, VESA is damn decent these days...
