I have two of the 32MB cards in FreeBSD 4.2-stable systems. Will probably end up with a 3rd here shortly. They use the SVGA server and are ok. I haven't needed XFree86 4.0.2 and I'm still running 3.3.6_?. With the Berkeley line down to the Seti server, I have upgraded all of them to KDE-2.1. You have to remember that they aren't the new cards with all of the 3D Acceleration and stuff. They are also a little slow by current standards but then they don't cost $299 US or so.
