The KM400 uses the VIA S3 UniChrome. Try changing the driver section
in the xorg.conf file to the via driver. "man via" for more info.
Starting with a fresh xorg.conf file might be good idea too, "Xorg
-configure". As far as the KM266 thingy, both FreeBSD and Xorg say
it's a KM400 Chipset*.... see the bottom of my post.  *sorry I allmost
missed that, the system says it has a "CLE266", not a KM266. The
CLE266 uses the UniChrome:
