    Generally not. To the extent that your configuration of video card and
    monitor can be treated as a generic (s)VGA display, FreeBSD will be
    plug-and-play for text mode (booting, console), and will also work genericly
    under X11.

    Getting 3D hardware support going for fast OpenGL stuff, and/or doing a
    multimonitor display mode are more complicated questions, but generally one
    can get such things working after more tweaking and time spent on your part.
