As root, try:

X -configure

X will try to automatically determine reasonable settings for your
hardware and produce a barebones XF86Config in the /root directory
(called XF86Config.new I believe). You'll have to rename it by dropping
the.new extension and copying it to your /etc/X11 directory, AFTER
testing it first of course...

If you still have problems you might want to repost but provide some
more useful information like what version of FBSD you're running and/or
perhaps the version of XFree86. Also you can check your /var/log
directory for X-related errors. Posting this, if available, is probably
very helpful

Hope that helps,

EB
