I am using the nvidia binary driver from /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver.  
My XF86Config (comments stripped) is attached.  It's set up to use the 
builtin monitor but has code to export to my monitor.

Last but not least, my /boot/loader.conf:

linux_load="YES"
nvidia_load="YES"
machdep.disable_mtrrs="1"
#hw.nvidia.registry.ReqAGPRate="1"
debug.acpi.disable="lid"
acpi_dsdt_load="YES"
acpi_dsdt_name="/boot/DSDT.aml"
loader_color="YES"

I had to do the disable_mttrs or I'd get freeze-ups with the nvidia binary
driver.

Good luck!

Mike
