There is no problem.

You need to add 
device		agp
to your kernel configuration. Then you need to create /etc/X11/XF86Config
(eg. with xf86config). In X 4.0.3 there is possibility to choose i810 card
-- in earlier  versions you need to put i810 configuration yourself (card
id. "i810" -- that's all). You need also to have i810 x-srever (as module,
while installing X from ports). It's running fine on my i810 based card.
For more infos try google.com with +FreeBSD +i810; Intel site is outdated
(for linux only :( ).

Good luck,
Shufla
