The branch stable/14 has been updated by kevans: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=7db1376bd1519d5ec48153d8c19a5a343fa59019 commit 7db1376bd1519d5ec48153d8c19a5a343fa59019 Author: Kyle Evans <kevans@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2025-07-31 04:41:28 +0000 Commit: Kyle Evans <kevans@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2026-04-12 13:43:35 +0000 loader: add nvidia modules to the loader blacklist It is known that nvidia modules, like the drm modules that are already present, will panic if loaded in early boot rather than later. Pop them into our list to deny loading them if someone were to add, e.g., nvidia-modeset_load="YES", to their loader.conf. This doesn't prevent them from being loaded if one drops to the loader prompt, but it does prevent the standard user from easy foot-shooting if they find old or inaccurate information out in the wild.
