In the boot loader you can try:
unset nvidia_load
or
set nvidia_load="NO"

a 'make clean install' on the nvidia port dir should do the trick ;)

Ales,

I had this problem to, both with 4.10+ and now with 6.0. I always thought 
the nvidia.ko was getting loaded "too early" in the boot sequence when I 
had it listed in rc.conf. What I did was to write a script that gave the 
command 'kldload nvidia' and put that in /usr/local/etc/rc.d. Scripts 
there are run pretty late in the boot sequence. Problem gone (for me 
anyway), and I've done it that way ever since. In any event I agree with 
Joao that you should re-compile the module under the new system.
