I have the same problem with my card, AFAIK It is supported until 4.2.0. I install FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE without X, the compile from source Xfree86 4.2.0 and It works beatiful. Even when 4.2.0 was not out, I had to CVS the current version in order to get my card work. suggestion: Install 4.2.0 Now I have my card detected fine, I just have it at 1024x768 and I don't know how to change it to a higher resolution, I tried the "Modes" line in the XFree file but I got an error that my LCD does not support that mode. Were you able to change that on your netBSD box?
