This works for me.  I'm adding the neomagic directory (from either 
the 1.0 or 1.1 archive), patching as above and updating xf86site.def 
after doing a ``make patch'' in ports/x11/XFree86.

But, as I mentioned in my other post, I get screen flickering - 
perhaps something to do with not having hardware pointer support...

Things are also a damn site better in 16bpp than in 8bpp !  It makes 
no difference if I change the dot clock or mode lines from the 
recommended "800x600" 40 800 .... 600 .... +hsync +vsync.

If I run an app (such as knews) full-screen, I get no flicker at all.

I suspect I'm going to have to go join the XFree86 usenet group and 
be a newbie :-[]
