Well, I chosen PCI:1:11:0 from the dmesg output:

bandit1 at mainbus0
pci1 at bandit1 bus 1
pci1: i/o space, memory space enabled
ofb0 at pci1 dev 11 function 0: Apple Computer Control
ofb0: 640 x 480, 8bpp
wsdisplay0 at ofb0: console (std, vt100 emulation), using wskbd0

I tried .properties in /chaos/control, I didn't find any information
that looks useful...

Well, I did this already, there is not that much information available.
What is surprising is that I remember running X on this machine a long
time ago, I just had to type X, and it worked immediatly. Now I'mm
running XFree-4, maybe this is the problem? Perhaps my video board is
not yet supported?
