Is it a VGA/SVGA card? Probably. If so, the text console will work fine. As to any GUI working on it, you need to check with XFree86, not FreeBSD. Look for the card on www.xfree86.org. I seem to remember something in the LINT kernel config file about portable computers and maybe even something about PC cards. I can't recall exactly, though. Aren't PC cards the same as PCMCIA cards?
