I found that I had to use the legacy nvidia-driver-96 port to get my 
GeForce 6150 to function, as described in my post a couple of days ago 
in the "Driver for nVidia Geforce 6150LE" thread 
<http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2009-June/200251.html>. 
I don't know if the problem will apply to other 6150 based systems or 
if it's just unique to my particular setup.
