This is practically an FAQ and, unless I'm way off, a brief note
like:

	FreeBSD will work with just about any video card.
	The greater question is whether the X Window System
	supports the card. To answer that question see
	www.xfree86.org.

would take care of many cases.

That's at least *something* for Handbook/Compatible Hardware/Video.
