I don't know if it's the same neomagic chipset, but X 3.3.3 is working fine on the neomagic chipset that comes with a Dell Inspiron 3500. I've gotten it to do 1024x768 at 24-bit (IIRC). Looks great. One of the commercial X vendors notes that the XSVGA serer in 3.3.3 wastes about 75% of the performance of the video hardware on neomagic chips. So don't plan on playing DVD's on a stock FreeBSD 3.2 config. :-) Accelerated servers are supposed to be available for FreeBSD. Z.
