I've built and installed the nvidia-driver port, and it loads the module successfully. However, I'm not getting any newly created devices in /dev/, so Xorg won't start (complains about not having the kernel module installed, although it is, I presume because the /dev/nvidiactl device isn't being created). Upon kldunloading the nvidia module, my machine panics and dumps, so I have some cores lying around. Does anyone have any hints on this?
