NVIDIA X.org Driver Documentation

[ikreos]

For those who are unaware like I was. You can find documentation for Nvidia's X.org driver at http://http.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/

Hope this helps those that were unaware of this documentation and/or are having issues with their configurations.

I would also like to suggest stickying this thread.

Hello, ikreos!
Not to dismiss your informative post in any way. But the nVidia driver installs much of that documentation in /usr/local/share/doc/NVIDIA_GLX-1.0. In fact, if built from within the ports(7) tree, a message is displayed on the screen indicating that, along with some troubleshooting tips. I remember the first time I installed the x11/nvidia-driver, and how frustrated I was. Seems I overlooked the pointer in the message sent, when the port finished installing.
Anyway, just thought it might be worth mentioning, along with your post.

All the best, ikreos!

Thanks for the information Chris_H! Yet another thing I was unaware of and overlooked. Heck I just got done updating the driver not 30 minutes ago. Also I have documentation turned off for the port.
