I do not know if it is supported and I hunted through some archives, but apparently all I was referred to do is to Buy an X Windows platform for my card!? I just bought the CD for FreeBSD, and I would have thought that would have included it. XFree86 version 3.2 (new w/in a month or so) has a beta release of the driver for the Millenium. You don't say what version of CD you got. 2.1.5 has XFree86 3.1.2. FreeBSD 2.1.6 should have 3.2. Otherwise, download the 3.2 distribution from ftp.freebsd.org or ftp.xfree86.org.
