X on netbsd is just the same as on Solaris, Linux. I also run it on
OpenBsd and FreeBsd.
try to run XF86Setup on emore time.
if this doesn't help edit /etc/X11/XF86Config or /etc/XF86Config or
$HOME/XF86Config. at first sight it looks very bulky but once you
understand you'll correct it very easily..
