running the following:

FreeBSD 4.7
XFree86-4.2.0_1,1
XFree86-libraries-4.2.1_1
XFree86-Server-4.2.1_3
XFree86-clients-4.2.1_1
NVIDIA FreeBSD Driver 1.0-3203

with

Section "Module"
Load "bitmap"
Load "extmod"
Load "dbe"
Load "type1"
Load "glx"
Load "freetype"
EndSection

Section "Device"
Identifier "Device"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "NVIDIA"
BoardName "GeForce3"
EndSection

and a Geforce3 card w/ 128m

Made all the changes and everything works, boots and runs fine - but for some reason beyond my limited knowledge I cannot run in 32bit mode. 8,16,24 are no issue
But trying 32bit mode the system returns an error saying the "nvidia" drivers don''t support this mode.
I even tried running the XF86Config scripts both text and graphical and neither one offers me the option of using 32bit modes...?

Any ideas?
