sure! if xfree86 supports your vid card, go for it! there are many
pccards which are supported, but stick with pcmcia instead of cardbus
unless you plan to run -current.
see http://www.cse.ucsc.edu/~dkulp/fbsd/laptop.html for laptop info
and http://www.xfree86.org to check support for your video card.
