 I dont see any problems with ATI Radeon 9200 on my home PC, except I
 cant play linux-enemyterritory with it :-). X.org driver just work,
 also you can have good 3D performance (at least with glxgears :-) ) if
 you'll install graphics/dri port.
   
Hi there,
Intel i855GM here.

1) once you installed the graphics/dri , how do you enable them in
xorg.conf?

2) can you define what is 'good performance with glxgears'? I get about
200 fps... but GL-based xscreensaver modules push very low fps.

thanks!!

Unfortunately I cannot tell you about configuration you need for 855G,
but at least you need load kernel module for 855G, and place
Load dri
Load glx
to Module section of xorg.cfg

I have about 750 fps on Radeon 9200 at home with installed
graphics/dri, and I have same fps with native nVidia drivers at work on
GeForce MX440.

Alex,

Welcome

Every thing you should need to know is in the handbook. You will need to
read the section on installing Xwindows, then chose a Desktop
environment (Gnome or KDE).

There are some minor issues with nvida video 3d cards but there are
nvida drivers for BSD. ATI cards are a bit more of a problem. In both
cases search the mailing list archives the info is there.
