Take a look there: /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver I also have a Dell D800 as well. I have the 1920x1200 screen (I gather from the former output that Mike has the 1600x1200 screen). When i switch to the external monitor, the laptop seems to lock up ... but I chalked that up to the fact that the docs say that 1900x1200 is only supported on the internal display. I don't know what level it's locking up at, though. It also seems that Linux is doing a lot better at suspending Dell machines. I've spent some time learning how to read ACPI code, but I havn't found anything damming in the DSDT yet ... leading me to believe that our ACPI code itself must be the problem.
