One might need to install the sysutils/afbinit port in order to run Xfree/Xorg (this should be only necessary for hardware acceleration but is required in any case here). With the x11-servers/xorg-server 6.8.1 port most likely Sun keyboards once again don't work at the moment (no support in the new "kbd" driver for FreeBSD), the last 6.7 port is fine though.
