I have a Rage 128 in an 8500 (also OF 1.0.5).  It works a little 
better under OF than the built in video.  Under XFree86 I can change 
the resolution,  but it has some strange artifacts.  This is with the 
binary of XFree86 on ftp.netbsd.org.  I haven't figured out what 
causes the problem.

Sorry for the late reply.  I'm a week behind in reading this list.
