Not sure about the JDK but I just wrote all the FBSD people working on 
the nvidia drivers and that is not what I get at all. Here is all the 
e-mails:

We're still working, and currently waiting for NVIDIA to send us some
stuff we asked them to fix. I'll try to get the web site updated so
people know what's going on.

Yes its still going ahead... Work has slowed down basicaly
because the driver is compleat besides the glx code which
is needed for 3D acceleration.. Unfortunatly nvidia have not
been forth comming with the needed infomation and code for
this part as of yet...

We were planning to start a discusion mailing list, but our
server guys wife recently had a baby and as you can expect
he hasnt really been around... I will try and see whats going
on with that now actualy, but keep an eye on the page for it..

I will also get someone to post something explaining whats
happining [;)]

Work is still goin ahead, although slowly. Word is that
nvidia themselves are now involved.

Unfortunately I have no ETA on working drivers.
