--=-apVbhq5zrab7rZlr4QbP Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi List, I have been using the Nvidia beta drivers for some time now ( version 1.0-3203 ) flawlessly without any problems, well except for one or 2 problems with Xscreensaver and OpenGL. Yesterday I tried loading the latest non-beta release 1.0-4365 and all it does is freeze my PC and then after a few seconds reboots without so much as a single error in XFree86.log or messages. I am using the following card, taken from dmesg: nvidia0: <RIVA TNT2 Model 64> I made the necessary changes to my XF86Config file ( see attached ) to include the "NV Agp" driver and also had to take out one or 2 items namely "pex5" and "xie" which worked fine with the beta drivers. Lastly, I then tried using the FreeBSD agp kernel option ( loaded via kldload ) and disabled the Nvidia agp driver but still my PC freezes and reboots. I have resorted back to using the beta drivers for the time being but was hoping that maybe someone has a solution to the problem I'm experiencing ? I also noticed that someone else has been experiencing this problem at http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=14 but there was no solution. Thanks and regards, Nelis New driver url: http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?IO=freebsd_1.0-4365 --=-apVbhq5zrab7rZlr4QbP Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=XF86Config.new Content-Type: text/plain; name=XF86Config.new; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "XFree86 Configured" Screen "Screen AGP" InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" EndSection Section "Files" RgbPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb" ModulePath "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/webfonts/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/bitstream-vera/" FontPath "unix/:7101" EndSection Section "Module" Load "bitmap" Load "dbe" Load "dri" Load "extmod" Load "glx" #Load "pex5" Load "record" #Load "xie" Load "xtrap" Load "speedo" Load "type1" Load "freetype" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "keyboard" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" Option "Buttons" "5" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "MyMonitor" VendorName "Monitor Vendor" ModelName "Monitor Model" HorizSync 31.5 - 57.0 VertRefresh 50.0 - 90.0 EndSection Section "Device" ### Available Driver options are:- ### Values: <i>: integer, <f>: float, <bool>: "True"/"False", ### <string>: "String", <freq>: "<f> Hz/kHz/MHz" ### [arg]: arg optional #Option "DigitalVibrance" # <i> #Option "PageFlip" # [<bool>] #Option "Dac8Bit" # [<bool>] #Option "NoLogo" # [<bool>] #Option "Overlay" # [<bool>] #Option "UBB" # [<bool>] #Option "Stereo" # <i> #Option "WindowFlip" # [<bool>] #Option "SWcursor" # [<bool>] #Option "HWcursor" # [<bool>] #Option "VideoKey" # <i> #Option "NvAGP" # <i> #Option "PixmapCacheLines" # <i> #Option "IgnoreEDID" # [<bool>] #Option "NoDDC" # [<bool>] #Option "ConnectedMonitor" # <str> #Option "ConnectedMonitors" # <str> #Option "TVStandard" # <str> #Option "TVOutFormat" # <str> #Option "NoRenderAccel" # [<bool>] #Option "CursorShadow" # [<bool>] #Option "CursorShadowAlpha" # <i> #Option "CursorShadowXOffset" # <i> #Option "CursorShadowYOffset" # <i> #Option "UseEdidFreqs" # [<bool>] #Option "FlatPanelProperties" # <str> #Option "TwinView" # [<bool>] #Option "TwinViewOrientation" # <str> #Option "SecondMonitorHorizSync" # <str> #Option "SecondMonitorVertRefresh" # <str> #Option "MetaModes" # <str> #Option "UseInt10Module" # [<bool>] #Option "SwapReady" # [<bool>] #Option "NoTwinViewXineramaInfo" # [<bool>] #Option "NoRenderExtension" # [<bool>] #Option "UseClipIDs" # [<bool>] Identifier "NV AGP" Driver "nvidia" VendorName "nvidia" #BoardName "Riva TNT2 M64" #ChipSet "RIVA TNT2 Model 64" BusID "PCI:1:0:0" Option "NvAgp" "1" # Use NVIDIA's AGP GART Driver EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen AGP" Device "NV AGP" Monitor "MyMonitor" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 1 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 4 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 8 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 15 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 16 Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection EndSection Section "DRI" Group 0 EndSection --=-apVbhq5zrab7rZlr4QbP--
