Googling around, I found that Xorg resolutions and modelines must be configured for projectors in the same way as with second monitors ie creating another display or screen layout in xorg.conf. But is should work "out of box way" if for example projector/monitor support current Xorg resolution. Also there are some problems (found by googling) with gdm and projectors in linux environment (no reasons why it should not happen in freebsd also).
