I'm running FreeBSD 4.6 and had problems with the vr interface basically as 
described in the pr.  No idea if it's fixed now though (gave up and got a 
dual-port Intel card off eBay), but I can report that the EPIA runs the 
current XFree86-4 port (4.2.0_1,1) just fine as long as the "SWCursor" 
option is used in the XF86Config

--------
Section "Device"
	Option	    "SWCursor"
	Identifier  "Card0"
	Driver      "trident"
	VendorName  "Trident"
	BoardName   "CyberBlade/i1"
	BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
--------

Without that option, I was occasionally seeing the mouse pointer jump over 
to the side of the actual hotspot, which made it pretty tough to work with 
(clicks didn't happen where you thought they would).

Sound works, by adding

    snd_via82c686_load="YES"

to /boot/loader.conf
