If you are using the same version of XFree86 on both Linux and FreeBSD, then you problem is nearly solved! Just take your XF86Config from Linux, fix the paths and the mouse driver, and you should be set. Make sure you have the same servers installed and that 'X' is linked to the correct one. Unless you have SuSE, which often ships with experimental servers, there should be little difference between the two.
