ok from what ive figured out is that kernel option WITH_LEGACY_GPU_SUPPORT is highly unsupported for the 5.x kernel http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/ports/x11/nvidia-driver/Makefile?rev=1.34&content-type=text/plain my usual suggestion is to use the driver from nvidia.com, nvidia is very friendly to the open source community - so they have drivers for freebsd. ive used it myself and agp support works great. now - for actually getting back into your system: do you have a back up kernel handy in your operating system? i know depending on how things are orginally set up when you install a new kernel the makefile copies the original kernel folder (/boot/kernel) to /boot/kernel.old and /boot/kernel is replaced with the new one. when you boot up freebsd and you get to the boot screen - select option number 6. then enter the following commands: >unload >load /boot/kernel.old/kernel >boot let me know if you make it into the OS and if you do - be sure and remove that nvidia option! ok i hope this help let me know of your status. -Ben Adam Stroud wrote: >All: > >I updated my nvidia drivers from the ports collection (Using the >WITH_LEGACY_GPU_SUPPORT option to add support for my GeFroce2 GTS). >During the upgrade process, my machine rebooted on it's own and now >when I boot I get the following error message: > >FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE #0: Fri Jun 24 23:25:37 EDT 2005 >adam@osirus.stronet.dyndns.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/APS_KERN i386 > >kernel trap 18 with interrupts disabled > >fatal trap 18: integer divide fault while in kernel mode > >instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc689f8c >stack pointer = 0x10:0xc1020c88 >frame pointer = 0x10:0xc1020c9c >code segment = base 0x0, 0xfffff, type 0x1b > = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 >processor eflags = resume, IOPL=0 >current process = 0 () >trap number = 18 >panic: integer divide fault >uptime: 1s > >Anyone have any ideas? > >A > >
