I played with this a bit more tonight.  I rebuilt the kernel (fresh
cvsup) and the nvidia-driver bits.  I even tried loading without glx.
I still have the same problem.  At this point I do not know if this is
a problem with the nvidia-driver port, a problem with -current, or
something I am doing wrong.  Does anybody have a functioning nvidia card
with FreeBSD -current at this time?
