This is actually an XFree86 issue; once you know the chipset your video card uses, check http://www.xfree86.org/ for details. > 2. I have installed FreeBSD 4.0 from CD-ROM.

RELEASE and STABLE are two different beasts. There are details at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/current-stable.html You will need to synchronise your source tree as part of the upgrade; CVSup is probably the easiest way to do this.
