Well, although I would suggest upgrading to 4.0.2 instead, the "nv" driver 
works fine for me.  I will admit that I had trouble getting the ports to 
work, so I went to xfree86.org and got the pre-compiled binaries for freebsd; 
I don't know if that will make any difference.

Oh yeah, and I'm running with an old TNT-based card, too, which impressed me 
that they bothered to support in the nv driver, along with the TNT2 and 
GeForce cards.....
