The closest you will get is a card with an older AMD/ATI chipset (Radeon HD 2xxx or 4xxx) - the newer ones need KMS (which isn't supported on FreeBSD). AMD did release full programming specs for some ATI chipsets - you'll need to check the AMD website for the specific card. Unfortunately, they don't have ECC for onboard RAM and so won't be acceptable to you. The rest of your requirements are a matter of the specific card and they change very rapidly. >A gpu-less framebuffer is fine.

I'd be absolutely amazed if you can find this in anything more recent than a Matrox Millenium II. -- Peter Jeremy
