            Bug ID: 263020
           Summary: nvidia-driver-390
           Product: Base System
           Version: 13.1-STABLE
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: michael.hmich@gmail.com

the reason for this report is the Geforde GT7xx cards which are like it is =
are
NOT supported anymore, this card is not so old and it is still globally on =
the
market as a good low budget card

so everything I report is regarding this cards

the nvidia-driver-390-144 was good until 13-RELEASE and still the first
13-STABLE kernel, but then it didn't load anymore

the xf86-video-driver-nv I guess is build on the latest or newer versions a=
nd
also does not work=20

the nvidia-driver-390-147 is the driver which is supporting the 7xx cards
even if it is listed in supported cards on the other nvidia-drivers, several
reports to NVIDIA didn't correct this error

the linux situation was similar but there are working patches for using the
driver with newer kernels

"now" (since dec-21) is out the nvidia-driver-390-147 which supports newer
linux kernels and should also address the FreeBSD problem in this sense,
unfortunately the driver does not compile or install on 13-STABLE or
13.1-STABLE even if it is a orignal nvidia driver, it is on NVDIA's official
FreeBSD support page: NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86_64-390.147.tar.gz=20

the compile error appearently comes from the freeBSD sources
I have pulled a new src tree, the kernel compiles fine but nvidia not

I think this card must be still supported and no only as legit nvidia-driver
but also with xf86-video-nv

thanks
