Here's a just-after-installation doc:
  http://www.daemonnews.org/200005/newbies.html

I also suggest that you try sysinstall again, by executing
  /stand/sysinstall
and selecting "Configure an existing system", then "configure
XFree86 desktop".  From there, you can automagically install
X and one of several toolkits and window managers.

Finally, don't miss the FreeBSD Handbook, the all-knowing, all-seeing
guide to doing anything with FreeBSD.  Well, we're working on it,
anyway.

Good luck!
