Problems with FreeBSD

[Mike Doyle]

Did you select one of the "higher" security levels? X won't run if the 
security level
is set too high, because it doesn't have permission to take over the 
screen/keyboard.

I'm sure someone who has been around longer than I have can phrase this in 
more technical
terms, but try setting kern_securelevel="-1" and/or 
kern_securelevel_enable="no"
in /etc/rc.conf and re-running the X setup program
