FreeBSD Driver 4365 doesn't see GeForce4 MX 440

I'm running FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE, with the NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86-1.0-4365 drivers, and I can't get the "nvidia" driver to recognize my GeForce 4 MX 440-SE card. The "nv" driver recognizes "GeForce4 MX 440", but not the -SE.

Any suggestions?

Found the problem -- instead of editing /etc/X11/XF86Config as shown in the docs, you need to set:

Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "PCI:0:11:0" <-- my box, YMMV see /var/run/dmesg.boot
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Card0"
. . . .

GLX now works like a charm.
