The FreeBSD wiki has a page about it: https://wiki.freebsd.org/A_Brief_Guide_To_Cross_Compiling_FreeBSD But that is about compiling the _base_ system. The vesa X11 driver is a por= t, not a part of base. So you'd have to check out the 8.2 source code, set up = the build environment (including building a 8.2 i386 toolchain!) before you can actually start building the port. At a guess, this would cost _you_ much more time than just starting the bui= ld on the slow machine at the end of the day and let it run overnight.
