Xorg and unichrome

Hi all,

I just got me a VIA EPIA SP800E and I can't seem to
get X to work. I've googled around some, but I haven't
managed to find a sure answer on the FreeBSD support
for the graphics cards in these things.

Some hardware info:
- VIA CN400 North Bridge
- Integrated VIA UniChrome™Pro AGP graphics with
MPEG-2 decoder /MPEG-4 Accelerator

I've had a quick look at the unichrome project on
sourceforge, but only found questions regarding the
status of drivers for FreeBSD and no answers. Note:
I'm running 6.0-RC1 right now, but I'm willing to try
any other version if it would help me get X working

If anyone has experience with the unichrome drivers,
please let me know how things went or at least where I
can find some detailed information on how to use these
under BSD (or if you think I can get it running with
some other drivers). Last time I played with linux
drivers under FreeBSD, things went very bad, so I'm
not doing that "unsupervised" again :)

BR,
   Chris
