Short answer is: 1) poudriere bulk -c on upgrade is your friend (people told me this, I should listen to them). 2) Chop down old xorg.conf with lots of stuff linux has not needed for a while to $ cat /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-nvidia.conf Section "Device" Identifier "NVIDIA Card" VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation" Driver "nvidia" EndSection 3) add nvidia-modeset to kld_list in /etc/rc.conf Upshot is now with x11/nvidia-driver benchmarks/glmark2 works fine, and no complaints from clients. So Ben, yeah, amongst the other two issues, you helped with that clue. David, you gave me the idea to try the other drivers (and the nvidia docs seem to indicate that hw support migrates down) and the identical error produced by the other drivers was a clue as well. Many thanks, Russell
