I am using the nvidia driver fine with the latest current:

nvidia0: <GeForce4 MX 420> mem 
0xfc200000-0xfc27ffff,0xf8000000-0xfbffffff,0xfd000000-0xfdffffff irq 5 
at device 0.0 on pci1

FreeBSD fraggle.xtaz.co.uk 5.1-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT #0: Thu Nov 
13 18:34:54 GMT 2003 
root at fraggle.xtaz.co.uk:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/FRAGGLE  i386

The only thing I've found a problem with so far is postfix as I've 
mentioned.

Matt.
