next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I recently installed FreeBSD 10.2 on a computer with a Geforce 9500 GT. The nvidia archive site says that the nvidia-driver-340-340.76 and the nvidia-driver-304-304.125 should work. When I try to make the port for either of these, I get an error "This driver does not support FreeBSD 10.xx/-current" There are then more error messages. I have downloaded 319.xx, that I use successfully on the same computer, with FreeBSD 9.1 or FreeBSD 8.3. This driver also gives the same error message. Is there a nvidia driver that will make on FreeBSD 10.2 and support the geforce 9500 GT. If not do you know how soon one might be available. I have found no information about this on the FreeBSD Forum. With no xorg.conf windows open with a default window manager, but both monitors show the same screen. I assume that X windows is using a vesa or some other default driver. Thanks for any help you can give me, Tom Oakes
