Assuming the SIS 315e is the same as the SIS 315 it will work with Xfree86 4.3.0
supplied with FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE, see :

http://www.xfree86.org/current/Status31.html#31

# X -configure
# XFree86 -xf86config /root/XF86Config.new
# mv XF86Config.new /etc/X11/XF86Config
# xf86cfg -textmode

$ startx

Of course afterwards, you want to install and configure GNOME/KDE/Whatever, load
up into xdm/kdm/gdm/whatever and possibly disallow remote X connections.

Regards,
Darren
