Where did "freeBSD" say that?

www.XFree86.org says the 968 is supported by XFree86 3.3.6 and for 4.2:

    Support (accelerated) for the 964 (revisions 0 and 1), 968, Trio32,
    Trio64, Trio64, Trio64V+, Trio64UV+, Aurora64V+, Trio64V2, and
    PLATO/PX is provided by the "s3" driver (however, only models using
    the IBM RGB 524, Texas Instruments 3025, or an internal TrioDAC
    RAMDAC chip are supported).

    (http://www.xfree86.org/4.2.0/Status28.html)

If you can't get 4.x to work, try 3.3.x.
