That i855/i915 port didn't work for my new notebook either.
_But_ the following did work for me:

Download the following file:

It contains a linux binary (and source code, but you can
ignore it).  Run the linux binary as root (linux compatibi-
lity must be enabled, of course).

I'm now happily running X.org at 1400×1050 in truecolor on
my new notebook.  It's a stock FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE, no agp,
using the VESA driver which works perfectly fine.

Best regards
