I'm currently running FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE and XFree86 3.36 on a
workstation with a NVidia Riva Ultra Vanta TNT2 with 16 megs of RAM.   
I've also run XFree86 4.01 with it.  I've never run SuperProbe on it,
but I never needed to.  The only OS I've found that doesn't like the
NVIDIA is Solaris.  Its a decent card, although my other boxen run with
somewhat older Matrox and ATI cards, which I both like.  There is a
NVidia Riva TNT2 driver with XFree86 3.3.6, and you can use the nv
driver (listed as NVidia GeForce) with the TNT2 if you want to use
XFree86 4.01.
