Seems to fail on my system as well:

vo_dga: DGA 2.0 available :-) Can switch resolution AND depth!
vo_dga: Selected hardware mode 1280 x 1024 @  60 Hz @ depth 24, bitspp 32.
vo_dga: Video parameters by codec: 720 x 432, depth 24, bitspp 32.
vo_dga: Framebuffer mapping failed!!!
FATAL: Cannot initialize video driver.

I guess I should go back to Matrox G200 and NetBSD 1.6 :-/
