Have you tried the various tuning knobs on the 4365 port?

The two most likely to have an effect are WITH_FREEBSD_AGP=1 (changes to
use
standard gart (needs agp.ko loaded) instead of NVidia's builtin gart) and
WITH_NVIDIA_HACKS=1 (which enables some "nvidia workarounds") ...


Yes, I have tried all of these, on both DragonFly BSD and FreeBSD. No
matter what, the 4365 driver hangs on my hardware.
I could always get the 3203 driver to work under FreeBSD... I'll install
the release of df when it comes out, and I'll try to use my port of 3203
again. Hopefully it will work. And if it does, maybe I can get it
committed.. ;D probably not. :o

Have you tried the 'nv' driver?  Works for me on my Inspirin 8200 w/ 
Geforce 4 Go.
