I have problems getting the nvidia driver to work.
I get these error msgs starting X

NVRM: AGP cannot be enabled on this combination of the AMD CPU and OS
kernel NVRM: kernel upgrade recommended

+ I recompiled my generic kernel and leave option AGP out.
(nvidia's agp gart is used then)
+ I use FreeBSD-5.4p7
+ AGP card is "GeForce 6600 GT"
+ CPU: Athlon64 3400+

I looked into the README file and did some googling but could not find
an answer. Where does this error msg come from?
What can I do about it?

I did a normal portinstall of the nvidia driver so it's compiled *not*
to use freebsd's agp.ko

Although Xorg seems to work I'd rather know what the problem is..
