I tried this before, but had no luck. I installed the very basic version of 
FreeBSD. No X. I am going to try this again and try the i810 drivers.

what packages do I need to get X working:

XFree86-Server-4.1.0_1
XFree86-libraries-4.1.0
XFree86-4.1.0_7
freetype2-2.0.4


anything else?

Hope you will post your experience.

Good luck.
