I may have to give OpenBSD a try, once 3.7 comes out.

Well, I realized my problem last night while fiddling around in PC-BSD (I tend to solve a lot of problems by fiddling around with things). Apparently although there was an "XF86Config" file in my /usr/etc/X11/ directory, that wasn't what was being used by PC-BSD. Once I realized this I quickly worked up an "xorg.conf" file and plopped it in that directory and lo and behold! It works.
In other news, PC-BSD has a new release, 0.6, and they're working on 0.7. I've been playing with it and I'm still impressed. The main thing that I like (which is what got me interested in Mepis and VidaLinux) is the simple installer that gives me a functional system right off the bat, which I can then take the time to tweak at my leisure.Registered Linux user #270181

Wonder why they put both an xorg.con and XF86Config file there...

Thats even weirder... Probably just something left if they recently converted the OS from xf86 to xorg.

The only minor annoyance I had was that the default resolution for the X environment was 1024x768,
