I tried copying my xorg.conf from Ubuntu (which automatically probes
everything and creates a xorg.conf) and tried to use on FreeBSD. But still
it hangs... I wonder if its because some drivers are missing in FreeBSD for
my monitor. My laptop has ATI Radeon 9000IGP in case that rings a bell to
someone in the same situation as me b4.
Here is xorg.conf from my Ubuntu Install
# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the /etc/X11/xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man /etc/X11/xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following commands:
#
# cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.custom
# sudo sh -c 'md5sum /etc/X11/xorg.conf
/var/lib/xfree86/xorg.conf.md5sum'
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

Yes, a blank screen and a locked keyboard is a perfect description of
an X configuration that isn't working. ;-)

Sorry for correcting, but this is not adviseable at this point. His X
isn't working obviously, so installing xorg.conf into the right place
would lead to more problems, without solving anything.
He can do so when the X configuration is working.
