If I was you I'd install X completely and set up XDMCP. Comment out the
line with DisplayManager.requestPort in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/xdm-config,
and start xdm.

Then you can start a full X login session in a window to your laptop with
Xnest (if not installed, see
ftp://ftp.xfree86.org/pub/XFree86/<version>/binaries/FreeBSD-3.x/Xnest.tgz):

Xnest :1 -query <hostname of lappy>

Change :1 to a unique number to have several sessions. You may want to
firewall access to your XDMCP port, though. :)

Cheers.
