ok I have an nvidea chip integrated onmy motherboard MSI KN7420 Pro. I just could not get X windows working on FreeBSD 4.5. In the end I gave up for the time being and have put in an old Matrox millenium card.
MSI's distributors in S Ca.. have not been much help - and do not seem to care very much either. So we will steer clear of MSI motherboards in the future.
