Hello,

I am trying to install the nvidia-driver (1.0.6113_2) on 5.3-RELEASE.
The installation fails and locks the computer, what looks like, right at
the end. This is what happens:

Install -o root -g wheel -m 555 nvidia.ko /boot/modules
kldxref /boot/modules
===> lib
===> lib/GL
===> lib/libnvidia-tls
===> lib/libGLcore
===> lib/libXvMCNVIDIA
===> lib/compat
===> lib/compat/libGL
===> lib/compat/libnvidia-tls
===> lib/compat/libGLcore
===> x11
===> x11/driver
===> x11/extension
===> etc
===> doc
ahd1: <Adaptec 39320 Ultra320 SCSI adapter> mem 0-0x1fff at device 10.1
on pci0 Unable to read SEEPROM

At this point the whole machine is locked...can't even ping it...and
this happens every time I try the install. Everything else runs
fine...only this install is causing problems.

Here's some relevant dmesg output:

da0 at ahd0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
da0: <MAXTOR ATLAS10K4_36SCA DFL0> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-3 device

ahd1: <Adaptec 39320 Ultra320 SCSI adapter> at device 10.1 on pci0
device_attach: ahd1 attach returned 12
da0 at ahd0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0

And it's an Asus a7v880 board.

The only strange thing I see in here is the "attach returned 12". In the
handbook it says to try adding "hw.pci.allow_unsupported_io_range=1",
but it looks like this was taken out in 5.3

Anything else to try?...Any more info needed?....

Thanks,

Stephen
