Reinstall?!? For something this trivial?
pw groupmod wheel -m username

You can also install security/sudo and add your user account to the sudoers file.

Are both hald and dbus running? Is /proc mounted?

this can help?...

FreeBSD boot partitions are 2, 5, 8. I created the following
"/etc/grub.d/10_freebsd" file, so "update-grub" does not remove
FreeBSD from the boot menu.

#!/bin/sh -e
cat << EOF
menuentry "FreeBSD 7-STABLE AMD64" {
set root=(hd0,5)
freebsd /boot/loader
}
menuentry "FreeBSD 8-STABLE AMD64" {
set root=(hd0,8)
freebsd /boot/loader
}
menuentry "FreeBSD 9-CURRENT AMD64" {
set root=(hd0,2)
freebsd /boot/loader
}
EOF

lol patience is a virtue.

On my amd64 system grub2 doesn't recognize "freebsd /boot/loader" and boots fine with "chainloader +1" instead.
If you don't have "shutdown/restart" in your menu then check/add /etc/fstab for the entry:
proc /proc procfs rw 0 0
If you also have KDE and kdm enabled Gnome only has "logout" option (not the button).
There is one more step to have fully usable Gnome: PolicyKit.conf.
This and some more is here (http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq2.html).

In general since my childhood I realized that best girls are those whom we are fighting with :)

Yeah, and it's not as if these forums aren't crawling with grub2 malarky (like this one (http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?p=56726)) already ...
