Thank you for your post.
My graphic card is not S3, but SiS620 
Can you tell me if that problem with S3 is permament or it is solved with next version.
Should I try upgrade my drivers, X or FreeBSD?
My BIOS does not support changing of i/o address.... :-(
With Slackware Linux everything was working nice.
