-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I'm running FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p9 #3 on my machine and I'm having problems on installing nvidia-driver from ports. I get the following error: ERROR: Failed to load the NVIDIA module! KLD nvidia.ko: depends on mem - not available. That's saying about mem.ko module. Well, I cvsuped my tree - 'cause mem.ko doesn't exit on my /boot/kernel directory - and it's not available for my tag=RELENG_5_2. I tried to update my tree with the tag=. and it downloads mem source, but it's incompatible to my freebsd version (when I try to build and install my kernel I get errors about options that aren't available for that version of kernel). I searched google about more info and all I could get was a discussion between commiters about cvsup war/bug fix. In the end: I can't install nvidia-driver because it needs mem.ko module and I can't install mem.ko module because it isn't cvsuped to my tree (or because I'm too dummy :( ). Could anyone help? I appreciate in advance, Ricardo Britto -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBNCPJV/QugxV6rm4RAs+8AJwP/UzfDe8FVrQTSGIWwsQCApqAtQCeLNKL shgFdWnyClMUtpalavF3obk= =V36G -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----help
