I recieved this error when attempting to install the new Nvidia blob.
Here's the whole story:
In anticipation of wanting to make use of the Linux OpenGL that the Nvidia driver natively supports. I echoed
[CMD=""]linux_enable=\"YES\" >> /etc/rc.conf[/CMD]
then
[CMD=""]# kldload linux[/CMD]
then proceeded by installing emulators/fedora_base-f10
then installing the xorg server. And finally unpacking the Nvidia blob version 195.36.24.
Following the instructions provided for FreeBSD @ Nvidia:
as root
[CMD=""]# cd unpacked-nvidia-driver[/CMD]
then
[CMD=""]# make install[/CMD]
which resulted in make success, but install failure:
install: /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers: No such file or directory
Not sure what went wrong, but the drivers directory exists in /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules
But I think a symlink was supposed to be made in the X11R6 tree. Not sure how best to proceed. Anyone have any thoughts/suggestions?
Thank you for all your time and consideration.
