Is there a workaround for this? I have the same card and got it to work by downloading the latest beta SVGA X server from (I believe) www.xfree86.org for freebsd. It also incorrectly identified my video RAM so I just manually set it when configuring the X server. Scott Ratliff Systems Engineer CARS Information Systems Corp. scottr@carsinfo.com
