While I am not running FreeBSD and I am running my Debian installation on a 
T31 I think I have the same video card and have found a great xorg 
configuration that actually uses OpenGL (if that's not a problem).

Here it is attached to the email.

Watchout though, unless you use the Dvorak keyboard layout YOU WILL HAVE TO 
CHANGE THE KEYBOARD SETTINGS... but only if you wish to use your keyboard and 
such.
