You should try either:
A)
comment out agp_load="YES"
compile nvidia-driver without WITH_FREEBSD_AGP
or
B)
leave agp_load"YES"
compile nvidia-driver with WITH_FREEBSD_AGP
I used to run WITH_FREEBSD_AGP / agp_load="YES" (because it was unstable
otherwise), but recently cvsuped to -CURRENT, and discovered that the
opposite was now more stable (WITH_FREEBSD_AGP/agp_load="YES" now causes
my computer to lockup regularly when in X).
I suggest you try the opposite setting and see if that helps. Also keep
WITH_FREEBSD_AGP and agp_load in 'sync'.
