...so existing binaries face zero missing library errors.
Which Packages Actually Need Reinstallation?
Kernel Modules (kmods): Drivers like nvidia-driver, drm-kmod (GPU drivers), or virtualbox-ose-kmod interact directly with internal kernel symbols (KABI). Kernel symbol changes between minor...
...wheel files which dont exist.
The way my freebsd-cuda works is by using the updated version of shkhln dummy-uvm.so
to intercept calls to nvidia-uvm which doesnt exist on Freebsd.

I mount the Nvidia driver and linuxlator Rocky libraries into...
I did say that the project depended on your work with the dummy-uvm.so
in the videos, documentation and notes to get Nvidia working.
Without the dummy-uvm.so using Jails and Podman with Cuda wouldnt be possible.
The post was just a brief one line description of how the project worked...
...I understand it correctly llama-cpp is the engine in Ollama but I'm new to all this ai kerfuffling.
I think I saw that you have a thread about finding an x11 guinea pig and I will reply to that since my build-from-ports nvidia drivers forces me to use x11 on this old unbalanced hardware...
You can run Ollama with Cuda on Freebsd using a Rocky Linux Podman container
The Nvidia Driver and Linuxulator libraries are mounted from Freebsd into the Podman container,
and you can start and stop Ollama with a Makefile by running make to start Ollama and make clean to stop it...
Great topic for a thread, thanks cracauer@.
Here's some technical aspects for running AI models locally on unbalanced crap hardware with llama-cpp, some random AI models from huggingface and aider.
The crap Hardware:

...installation of FreeBSD-15.1-RELEASE-amd64 I found the installer to be user friendly. However, getting a Mate Desktop up and running with an Nvidia graphics card was just "above my pay-grade".
Arch-Linux: Arch is an involved by hand installation, requiring your complete attention. Gentoo...
the issue that i have nvidia card which not listed in /etc/X11/xrdp/xorg.conf DRMAllowlist
freebsd is really bad with nvidia - got alot of headaches getting desktop to work at all with my card
I believe this is only needed if you want some sort of hardware acceleration. I don't need that, and don't install those drivers, and it is working well for basic access.
I didn't see anything in the xorg log that clued me in on a problem, but I might be missing something.
I have found that...
...but now i have another issue
i need now to edit to /etc/X11/xrdp/xorg.conf , for my device but i dont know what i need to do drm-kmod is for amd and intel not nvidia so i used (nvidia-drm-kmod)
but now how to find my render device and should i keep DRMAllowlist as is or edit it for nvidia
hello i am using freebsd on my computer (not headless device and using DE on it and installed display drivers - nvidia)
and i wish to be able to connect to it its DE remotely not just ssh but both tigervnc and xrdp refuses to work
uname -a

If you already have up-to-date ports tree (for the driver version) and /usr/src/sys/ 100% in sync with your running kernel.
My assumption on previous comment was that the only remaining problem is that you cannot fetch NVIDIA driver distfile.
...which is incomparable to more than 1 million lines of (I suppose) mostly blindly generated code.
This sounds familiar... Aha!

If the issue is about distfile of x11/nvidia-{kmod|driver} on latest branch, can't you download it here? Both uses exactly the same distfile to build.
