FreeBSD 5.3...configure XF86config !

I need to configure my XF86config file in oerder to have 1152 x 864 screen resolution. I am currently blocked to 1024 x 768 and the KDE interface occupies too much space in my 17" crt.
If this were linux i would type" sudo text editor name /etc/x11/XF86config to gain acess to the file with writing privileges. How can i do it in BSD?

If you aren't scared of the Terminal, you can always use the ee program
from a terminal su root, then type ee /etc/X11/XF then hit tab and enter
it will open up the ee program in the terminal. use your arrow keys to put the cursor on the line you need to change, then when you are done hit cntl c and type exit and hit enter.
