You seem to not have direct rendering / GLX enabled. I'm not sure if
that is supported on your particular chipset, but it's nevertheless
worth a try, since pretty much all games assume/require
hardware-accelerated 3d graphics to be working in order to run properly.

Make sure you have

Load "glx"
Load "dri"

in Section "Module" in your xorg.conf as well as

Section "DRI"
        Mode    0666
EndSection

Also make sure you have the i915 drm kernel module available (is
available in FreeBSD 6.0 and newer, should be in /boot/kernel/i915.o)
and loaded (check with kldstat, try manually loading it before starting
X if it doesn't get autoloaded).


Cheers,
