My GeForce 440 MX runs great in Freebsd.  To install the port just do:

cd /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver && make install

This actually goes much better if you just install from the ports.
That's what I'm using and other than the configuration hoops, it works
perfectly.

Have you verified that the GeForce4 is supported?

Hi,

Make sure you have the linux compatibility on. If not, you can
install the package with pkg_add -r linux_base, then, everything
should be O.K.
