Hello everybody! Usually, I use Win XP, but now for my work it has come necessary to use *nix-based system, and i chosen PCBSD. I had installed Sun VirtualBox, and then faced with problem of incompatibility of my graphic card with main system drivers, and so resolution was terrible.
I found drivers, which had been installed in XP. Here is page with them: http://lwn.net/Articles/297314/
Help me please with question: How to unpack and install this driver package in PCBSD?
http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/ind ... 7.0.tar.gz
Or
http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/ind ... .0.tar.bz2
Thanks!

p.s.: sorry for my English, I am writing from Ukraine =)

So you are running PC-BSD in VirtualBox as a guest, as I don't believe Virualbox compiles for FreeBSD anymore? Why would you need the intel video driver. Doesn't VirtualBox have it's own driver? I don't believe FreeBSD is supported by their addons.
