Hmmm...  I use a Diamond Viper 550 pci w 16 megs o/ram with Xfree 4.0.  The
Riva TNT driver works like a charm.  The driver worked with FBSD 4.0 and is
still working with 5.0-current.  I could see if you upgraded your box, chose
the xfree option,  and now have to reconfigure Xfree.

Why not do /stand/sysinstall and do a post-install configure of xfree and
see if you can get the XF86 driver to work correctly?  I find this easier
then xf86config.
