Thank you very much!
It worked.
I tried the following on T0sha:
temporarily modified the etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf file:
...
   url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/release_1",
...

I then did a selective download of the older xorg-server with all dependencies
to /var/cache/pkg

# pkg fetch -d xorg-server xf86-video-nv slim slim-themes xf86-input-keyboard
xf86-input-libinput xf86-input-mouse xf86-video-scfb xf86-video-vesa xorg
xorg-drivers

I've also included packages that are suggested to be removed at runtime
# pkg delete xorg-server
In my case it is (on Tosha):
         slim: 1.3.6_22
         slim-themes: 1.0.1_2
         xf86-input-keyboard: 1.9.0_5
         xf86-input-libinput: 1.2.0_1
         xf86-input-mouse: 1.9.3_4
         xf86-video-nv: 2.1.21_5
         xf86-video-scfb: 0.0.7_1
         xf86-video-vesa: 2.5.0_1
         xorg: 7.7_3
         xorg-drivers: 7.7_7
         xorg-server: 21.1.4_1,1

Then I reinstalled the packages from the cache by executing
# pkg install -f slim slim-themes xf86-input-keyboard xf86-input-libinput
xf86-input-mouse xf86-video-nv xf86-video-scfb xf86-video-vesa xorg
xorg-drivers xorg-server
Packages were downgraded.

After a reboot, xorg-server 1.20.14,1 and xf86-video-nv 2.1.21_4 worked
perfectly and my eyes appreciated the difference.

Blocked packages just in case:
# pkg lock xf86-input-keyboard xf86-input-libinput xf86
-input-mouse xf86-video-nv xf86-video-scfb xf86-video-vesa xorg xorg-drivers
xorg-server

Then I switched back to quarterly in etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf.

I hope it will work for a while.

Thank you, special thanks from my eyes.
