i expect this is setting the framebuffer mode on the xserver
and then using the framebuffer device in X - rather than the
native X driver.

you should try the framebuffer device or the VESA device.

p.s: i'm afraid i've not had much success with framebuffers in
BSD but vesa driver has worked for me a few times
