I'm using a simliar setup (you didn't specify which ViRGE you've, so I can't say if it's identical) on two machines (one's 4.2-R, and one's 5.0-C) and have no such problems. Could you provide more information, such as.. How does it hang? Does it panic? Do things like alt+f1/alt+f2 work (they won't work when it's trying to boot--disable moused in rc.conf and try to start it manually when the system is in multi-user mode)? Can you ping it? Does everything else work if moused isn't running (obviously X won't)? If you revert to the old card, does it still hang? Also, what version of FreeBSD is this? You mentioned you have a 4.1.1-R CD, but is that what's installed on the disk? Please copy this list when replying to this message.
