Thanks for your hint; I've installed this port x11/nvidia-driver and did
what the port requested at the end about /boot/loader.conf and
/etc/rc.conf;

I run 

# X -configure

and got a fresh xorg.conf created which as well contains 'nvidia' as the
driver:

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Card0"
        Driver      "nvidia"
        VendorName  "nVidia Corporation"
        BoardName   "Quadro FX 770M"
        BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

but when I run:

# X -retro -config /root/xorg.conf.new

X.Org X Server 1.6.0

        Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org
        to make sure that you have the latest version.

it just hard-locks the system :-(

any idea? could you send me off-list your xorg.conf to check it?
