Succes up to now (mplayer, Google Earth, xfce4) on my Nvidia-based
(GeForce GT 240M) laptop:
FreeBSD acer 10.0-STABLE FreeBSD 10.0-STABLE #0 r263582: Sat Mar 22

rene at acer:/usr/obj/usr/home/rene/freebsd/stable-10/sys/GENERIC  amd64

using x11/nvidia-driver 331.49 with the LINUX option on (default).

Haven't tested games or HDMI yet.
