No, but I have an ATI, and 3D works. I could switch to an nVidia 
graphics card if it were that important to have drm in FreeBSD, but 
it's not. Still, it would be nice if the card's memory were being used. 
It does seem that eventally even most ATI cards are fully supported, 
but my 9600XT is still a bit too new. As far as the reviews go, those 
were all on Win machines, and I wasn't considering *nix installation at 
the time, but had read that it generally worked for many *nix OSes with 
some minor issues.
