Marianne,

I bet the problem is that the version of X which FreeBSD installs (XFree86)
is 3.3.x. Your ATI Radeon requires version 4.0.2 or higher. I have a
question posted on freebsd-questions myself today RE: how to setup XFree86
4.0.x with a Radeon (I've got a 32 Mb DDR Radeon in a system at home :)

If you're subscribed to freebsd-questions, then I'd monitor it for answers
to our questions. If you're not subscribed, let me know and I'll forward
any answers I get to you...

Best regards,
