You didn't see it in the list because it's not there.  The Radeon
9600XT is not supported by the XFree86-4-Server port.

You can probably just install the XFree86-4-Server-snap port, unless you
have FreeBSD/amd64, in which case you'll need to hack up the
XFree86-4-Server port, for which I have patches.
