--Sig_/6JJQ.4/jKX=P6d1i_SChbzk Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I was just given a Gateway GT 52250 with an AMD Anthon 64 X2 Processor 3800+ with a nVidia Geforce 6150LE card. Assuming I install the 64 bit version of FreeBSD on this machine, what nVidea driver should I install? From what I understood, nVidia was not producing 64 bit drivers for FreeBSD due to a problem with the FreeBSD kernel. There are none listed on the nVidea site either. I did notice a driver on the nVidia page for FreeBSD x86, version # 185.18.14, released June 5, 2009; however, the version is the ports is: 180.44, which has actually been superseded four times since its release by nVidia. Would the x86 driver work in 64 bit FreeBSD or do I have to install the x86 version instead? --=20 Jerry gesbbb@yahoo.com Diplomacy is about surviving until the next century.
