Hi all

I'm new to freeBSD. I am trying to set up NVIDIA drivers.
I followed the http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=3038 link but it gave me the following error:

"/usr/share/mk/bsd.kmod.mk", line 12 : "cant find kernel source tree"
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver.


i'av installed FREEBSD 7.2 i386
I'm attachin the pciconf -l output

How can I get this corrected. Any help is appreciated

Thanks.

you do not install kernel source , you can install use CD or DVD , and by use sysinstall
