Hi, I'm new to FreeBSD and just performed my first install. I'm following the handbook and am now at chapter "5.4. Xorg Configuration". I've already successfully installed x11/xorg. I'm trying this as the root user, but get the same results as a regular user (who is in the wheel group). I've...

Hello.<br />I am aware this has been asked numerous times before, but the two methods that I tried failed. I had to clean-up after both methods. I have an Alienware 13 R-2 laptop, with 16GB RAM, and "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M". I have been using the OS for a while now (without the drivers), with...

Hi all! I have a MacBookAir3,2 (13") with a Nvidia GeForce 320M and FreeBSD 11.1 installed. I took most of the configuration from this thread: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/52311/ Installed nvidia-driver-340 that fits the card, according to nvidia.com I got these errors in Xorg.0.log: [...

Hi all, After a pkg upgrade earlier today, I'm unable to launch Xorg with xinit /usr/local/bin/openbox-session. I get a black screen, my monitor reports 'No Signal', and goes into power save mode. I can still ssh into the box, but I can't get a console (or I don't know how to get a console)...

I just installed a shiny new nVidia GTX 1060. I have the nVidia driver up and running with X; neither it nor its MS Windows counterpart does well with my monitor's EDID information, so it defaults to 1024x768 instead of 1280x1024. I've been trying to configure resolution manually. It worked...

Well hello everybody..... :3 I saw the Admin edited my one post for clarity..... I hope this new post is easy enough to read..... :) Anywho, I currently run FreeBSD with Xorg, Slim, and XFCE4..... Xorg is laggy, to the point that EVERYTHING lags..... :\ So when I install the nvidia-driver...

Hello everyone! I have a strange issue that i'd like to share with you. When I use the Flightgear software, after about 10 minutes of use, my monitor goes into power saving mode and i cannot resume. I have disabled the screensaver and the dpms, but nothing does. Also, the same issue with the...

I have an old nVidia GeForce 6XXX card and i try to breathe life into the "nv" driver, but no avail. I tried with this xorg.conf: Section "Device" Identifier "Generic FB" Driver "nv" Option "NoAccel" "True" # Option "ShadowFB" "False" # EndSection But didn't work. Can anyone give me an...

This isn't quite a full bug report, but is wine still supposed to work on FreeBSD 11? I upgraded about ~ 2 weeks ago or so, and ever since then wine hasn't been able to emulate anything at all but the most basic of applications. As in, not just one or two, but almost my entire library fails to...

I use x11/nvidia-driver-340, installed from ports, because I have an older video card that the default x11/nvidia-driver no longer supports. As long as I install everything from ports, it works fine, so apparently all the ports tools understand that the older version handles that dependency...

Running vidmode -i mode gives a list of 511 "empty" modes mostly zero's and all identical. I have 10.3-stable generic kernel, have installed nvidia driver for GTX 750 TI with three heads. Though it might only see two. The computer is a Supermicro (gen 8) with two quad cores and 32G RAM. Being...

Hi. I've been havig an issue using the Nvidia driver. Everything seems to be set correctly but for some reason the CPU usage is really high when using any graphical app. I'm getting 59 FPS and my video card is a EVGA GeForce GT 520. My dmesg in 10.3: Copyright (c) 1992-2016 The FreeBSD...

Yes I know there are packaged nvidia drivers in the FreeBSD repo. But they are old and do not support current Nvidia cards. So I had to find out how manual installation of the driver is done. As I didn't find solutions in the forums, I like to contribute my solution: 1. Download the driver from...

Hi FreeBSD users, Things is i am going to using NVidia card (GT730) for my PC as Handbook say: http://docs.freebsd.org/doc/7.3-RELEASE/usr/share/doc/en/articles/compiz-fusion/nvidia-setup.html So, I install the latest driver: pkg install x11/nvidia-driver And this is my rc.conf...

I've been trying to get the Nvidia drivers working and have faced multiple problems. Currently i'm getting this error: Installing linux_base-c6-6.7_1... +++ Some programs may need linprocfs, please add it to /etc/fstab! +++ Running linux ldconfig... This software is based in part on the...

I'm trying to setup my nvidia drivers and have been following the handbook, I have installed xorg and enabled linux_enable="YES" It says: When I did that I got this response: # sysctl compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.18 compat.linux.osrelease: 2.6.32 -> 2.6.18 This makes me wonder if I am...

Hello Community, I am new to FreeBSD and have a problem with the nVidia-driver for Xorg. Yesterday I installed FreeBSD-10.3-RELEASE on my laptop (MSI CX61 with NVIDIA GeForce 820M) and build Xorg form the Ports Collection. Then I created the configuration files for the keyboard and for the...

I just installed a fresh 10.3 and attempted to install my graphics driver with pkg install nvidia-driver I got this in response: [64/65] Installing linux_base-c6-6.7_1... sysctl: unknown oid 'compat.linux.osrelease' linuxulator is not (kld)loaded, exiting pkg: PRE-INSTALL script failed...

Skip two paragraphs to get to the issue if you don't want to know the back story. I was using Xfce until a few weeks ago. It ran fine...or at least it did. I ran into some issues with loading Xfce. It would crash my computer for whatever reason. I don't remember a particular update causing this...

So I've recently installed FreeBSD. I'm currently running kernel 10.2-RELEASE-p9 with userland 10.2-RELEASE-p13. This is the amd64 version. Anyway, I've recently installed the Nvidia drivers from Nvidia's website due to the ones available from pkg being pretty outdated. The driver works fine...
