Are you running X, or are you using the console?  Run the X11 config 
utility (via /stand/sysinstall) or "man vidcontrol", respectively.

For the second question, try doing a "rehash", and make sure that 
/usr/local/bin is in your $PATH.  Also take a look for files installed 
by the port under /usr/local/etc & /usr/local/etc/rc.d.
