Hi there, I have set up a FreeBSD desktop (14.1) on fairly old hardware (AMD FX-8370, GeForce GTX960). Everything works alright, except one thing: I'm experiencing sporadic freezes. These freezes are permanent. Input does not work, images are still. Only hard reset helps. This happens when I...

Hello! I have a good working system (14.1) with DRM and AMD RX550 installed. Everything works. Now I wanted to give a try to Nvidia Quadro P600 card. Installed graphics/nvidia-drm-kmod and x11/nvidia-driver. Also changed the /etc/rc.conf. When the machine boots, the WM does not start. Nothing...

Seems like NVIDIA is open-sourcing it's drivers. Is there any plan or road-map to bring those drivers to FBSD?

Having problem with installing x11/nvidia-driver for my GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER on my FreeBSD 14.1 make install clean went smoothly and dependencies were installed, but it stops the compiling at this part ===> Building for nvidia-driver-550.54.14 all_subdir_src ===> sro (all) -...

If I boot and startx and do nothing to the displays (3 monitors, HDMI), it works flawlessly. If I move them around in any way or change refresh rate or do absolutely anything with `xrandr` or `nvidia-settings`: The non-primary displays flicker and turn on and off as I scroll a tab on any...

the libc6-shim package installs a program called nv-slgrun which can be used with various applications to enable nvenc encoding and cuda for example osb studio, ffmpeg, handbrake, blender nv-slgrun was working with the nvidia 535 driver which let you use nvenc encoding with obs studio and...

So I've been thinking of switching to FreeBSD on my desktop which is currently dual booting Windows and Fedora Linux. I like FreeBSD and I have used it in the past and I find it easier to use and understand than Linux but I'm not sure if it would work with my setup and I wouldn't wanna format...

Having a bit problem with Nvidia graphics installation. I have an NVIDIA NVS 3100M, Nvidia Corporation GT218M [NVS 3100M] to be exact. It needs Nvidia-340 drivers to function according to nvidia, so i installed the nvidia-driver-340-340.108.4 threw pkg and added nvidia to kld_list to my...

Freebsd 14 p.6 quarterly Nvidia Driver 550.54.14 matches the exact version on Ubuntu 23.10 That means you can use the Nvidia driver from the Ubuntu repo in a jail or a chroot and it will match the version on the Freebsd host rather than having to download and manually install the Nvidia...

I'm trying to get obs studio working with nvenc encoding on my dell xps 15 2019 using nv-sglrun, which should be possible according to this post on bugs.freebsd.org "At the moment there are no native FreeBSD versions of libcuda.so/libnvidia-encode.so/libnvcuvid.so, so to actually use NVENC we...

Freebsd 14 Wayland running the Wayfire compositor on a Dell XPS 15 2019 using a Nvidia graphics card All the hardware works but you need to use wifibox for the wifi drivers, and nvidia on freebsd doesnt yet support nvenc and cuda the packages needed are nvidia-driver nvidia-settings...

Hi folks, recently the Nvidia driver is quite capricious and 50% of the time decides to not resume from suspend. I do suspend through XFC4 actions but perhaps is preferable using other methods more reliable… 🤷‍♂️

Hi all I installed FreebSD 14 on a HP-Z440 with an NVIDIA Quadro M4000. GK Drivers work fine, and I can startx, and Xorg comes up. When I exit Xorg by the Menu "Exit" it's freezing (and the Window Bars are gone too, see Pics): Exit and then... Xorg is frozen: From here on, I only can...

I created a new user last night and I have Xfce 4.18 installed on FreeBSD 13.2-p4. It works perfectly on my account and has been for the past month. Last night, I went ahead and created a new user for my dad so he could use my computer. Issue is, Xfce (specifically, xfwm) appears to crash. I...

Hey guys, I'm currently installing freebsd in a kvm virtual machine, with a gtx 980, however, I'm unable to get Xorg working as it errors with "no screens found (EE)" when i try startx. Currently, I have done: pkg install nvidia-driver nano /etc/rc.conf -> added the line...

My laptop is an Optimus capable and there is no way to disable Intel graphics from the BIOS (I am also willing to use both whenever suits). I followed the handbook and also tried all relevant posts for this issue with NVIDIA, but nothing worked. I was only able to reach to a blank screen with a...

Now by now I have learned my lesson NEVER to buy a laptop with an Nvidia graphics but I am stuck with this for now. So I am running a Dell Precision 7510 with an Nvida Quadro M1000M. I am using the 535 driver. I installed it through pkg. I have some issues that I believe are mostly connected...

This topic has already been partly discussed (getting-more-information-about-the-gpu-and-libraries-loaded.80906), but for fellow users with a dedicated Nvidia GPU, I wanted to share my experience with the various GUI and CLI monitoring tools that I find useful as well as instructions on how to...

The Nvidia legacy diver make install is complaining about sys/capability.h being deprecated. Is there a way to overcome this? I attached a screenshot. Thanks. Freebsd 12.4 release p1
