>Release:        FreeBSD 10.0-CURRENT #0 r254090: Thu Aug  8 10:34:28 CEST 2013 amd64
>Organization:
FU Berlin
>Environment:
>Description:
Installing/updating most recent port x11/nvidia-driver (319.32 AND 325.15) brings the system immediately down when starting X.

Running CURRENT r253990 even with most recent nVidia GPU driver BLOB 325.15 doesn't have problems. With the most recent CURRENT (r254090), after booting, when the system loads the kernel-module nvidia.ko the box immediately core dumps.

I have to start /load the nvidia.ko via /etc/rc.conf.local since loading the kermel module in /boot/loader.conf very often results in immediately crashes.
>How-To-Repeat:
Update to the mst recent (r254090) sources of FreeBSD CURRENT and try loading nvidia.ko, starting X.
