Download kernel source code: i386 here x86_64 here
Unpack it in /usr/src directory
Update you ports tree:
# portsnap fetch update
Get inside needed driver(ex. nvidia-drivers-304):
# cd /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-drivers-304
Compile it
# make config # make install clean

Install nvidia-xconfig utility and create xorg.conf file with it
# cd /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-xconfig # make install clean # nvidia-xconfig
