Yeah, but the guy who has it isn't running XFree86.. :-(  See below.

X Inside, Inc. is on the brink of shipping their Motif product for
FreeBSD and has just finished the final testing - I expect to see it
myself fairly shortly.  They also do an excellent X server for $99 that
supports just about every card on the planet, and quite nicely as well
(their setup utility is a *lot* easier to use!).  Perhaps you can get both
together at a good price! :-)  http://www.xinside.com for more info.

No, I've no connection whatsoever with X Inside - I'm simply a satisfied
customer.

Finally, the BSDI version of netscape works just fine for FreeBSD.
