Check that you have the latest version Maybe try with driver "nv" instead of nvidia to see if the issue is the driver. kldstat | grep nvidia to check that the nvidia kernel module has loaded. Is there any helpful info in Xorg.0.log Lines starting with (EE) are errors. (WW) warning lines may also be helpful. dmesg will show the startup log and may highlight any hardware detection problems. Have you installed x11/nvidia-settings? It is a gui app that should show you all available resolutions. The Xorg.conf from your archlinux install should produce the same results on FreeBSD. Or at least give hints to what is configured wrong. There is a chance that your linux install used a newer version of xorg - 1.7 is default in ports but you can set WITH_NEW_XORG to build 1.10
