I've had a Diamond Stealth 24 VLB since Diamond released it.  I've
previously used it with Linux and XFree86 2.1.1 and now with FreeBSD
2.1.0-R and XFree86 3.1.2.  I've never had a problem using all the
higher resolutions with the accelerated S3 server.  I'm including my
/etc/XF86Config.  I hope this helps.
