freebsd-current + nvidia GeForce GT 520M

[m irya]

t410 has the NVS 3100M card, probably much different from the one i
have if nvidia drivers works for it. I dont want to mess with Intel
KMS patches (yet), propaply will wait till at least the userland parts
appears in ports.

Still, has anyone a recipe how to force VESA driver work with 1366x768 mode?
