To use these drivers, make sure that you have loaded the nvidia kernel
|
|
module, by doing
|
|
|
|
# kldload nvidia
|
|
|
|
or adding
|
|
|
|
nvidia_load="YES"
|
|
|
|
to your /boot/loader.conf.
|
|
|
|
Note for users of FreeBSD 7.X and above: you MUST edit /boot/loader.conf
|
|
and reboot, kldload'ing nvidia module will NOT do the trick.
|
|
|
|
If you build this port with WITH_FREEBSD_AGP=yes, make sure you have
|
|
agp.ko kernel module installed and loaded, since nvidia.ko will depend
|
|
on it, or have your kernel compiled with "device agp". Otherwise the
|
|
nvidia kernel module will not load. Also, care to specify correct
|
|
``Option "NvAGP"'' in ``Device'' section of your X11 configuration file.
|
|
|
|
When building with Linux compatibility (WITH_LINUX=yes), make sure
|
|
linux.ko is available as well (or have it compiled in kernel). It can
|
|
be loaded via /boot/loader.conf (or later in boot process if you add
|
|
|
|
linux_enable="YES"
|
|
|
|
to your /etc/rc.conf.
|
|
|
|
Note that this driver does not support PAE-enabled kernels.
|
|
|
|
If X.org cannot start and reports
|
|
|
|
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to obtain a shared memory identifier.
|
|
|
|
in /var/log/Xorg.0.log while actually you have ``options SYSVSHM''
|
|
enabled in kernel, the sysctl ``kern.ipc.shmall'' should be increased.
