I am posting this as a feature reference for people
with simillar models on how to configure a proper
XF86config file.

scanpci tells me i am using:
pci bus 0x0000 cardnum 0x10 function 0x00: vendor
0x1002 device 0x4e50
 ATI Technologies Inc RV350 [Mobility Radeon 9600 M10]

at the moment my userland is 3.1 and the kernel
4.99.22

it is obvious by the subject that i am using a G4
laptop (1.33 Ghz) with 17" widescreen LCD.
(powerbook 5,3 in of)

my /etc/X11/XF86Config looks like this:

Section "ServerLayout"

in the case you are using wscons and have
wsmoused=YES
in your rc.conf file disable it.I could not get X work
while wsmoused was running.

this config works with or without wscons.

the only problem i am having at the moment is some
kind of lines and "snow" when i move X windows around
at the top of the screen.
