I just purchased a new computer with a Rage 128 card. I can't get into XFree86-4 with this card. It hangs the system. But it works just fine under XFree86-3. I am toying with the idea of simply replacing the video card rather than going through the incredible convolutions needed to get DRI under FreeBSD working. What cards have you found successful under XFree86-4? I want really good 2D acceleration, but 3D acceleration is not a great concern.
