Default new bsd nvidia drivers
hey there are new freebsd nvidia drivers out. heres how to install them. download the linux compat package from pcbsd.com and install it. type these two commands as root in the console.first type cvsup /root/ports-supfile -g and let that proceed. when that is finished type
cvsup /root/standard-supfile and let that finish. then go to nvidias website and download the new drivers and extract them. go back to the console as root and cd into the directory you just extracted with the nvidia files. then type make install. after that go to the k menu under kde programs,system,more applicatons,filemanager super user mode. and then open the file /etc/X11/XF86Config with kwrite and under the module section add Load "dbe" and Load "glx" and then go to the device section and change the driver from vesa to nvidia. save and reboot.
