This is well known bug in Xorg driver. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1549 nVidia's binary driver doesn't have this bug but it is not available for FreeBSD/amd64 yet. > Beyond those 3 things, which I think extend to most mobiles before > they get some attention, its golden.

DRI doesn't work because there is no open source driver. http://dri.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/nVidia?action=highlight&value=CategoryHardwareVendor nVidia's own driver works fine for FreeBSD/i386 though.
