Black screen KDE (one more....)

I've read all the topics found on forum, but nothing helps. The situation is:

usr/ports/nvidia-driver/ installed successfully

[CMD="laptop#"] cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep "^(EE)" [/CMD]

Shows only:
(EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8)
(EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8)
(EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8)

After startx I can a Nvidia logo, then KDE4 loading screen, and after it I see black screen with "Starting Akonadi Server" (though StartServer=false in akonadiserverrc) and a message on the top of the screen that "nepomuk semantic desktop needs the virtuoso rdf"

Closing it we have just a black screen with cursor moving.
 
Problem with Akonadi solved, but the main one is not!

I don't know was to do. Just updated KDE to 4.8.4 - it didn't help.

Change in xorg.conf
Code:
- Driver      "nv"
+ Driver      "nvidia"

Disable HAL by adding to ServerLayout
Code:
Option  "AutoAddDevices"  "Off"
 
Rebuild x11/xorg, adding in /etc/make.conf:
Code:
WITHOUT_NOUVEAU=yes

In order to work NVIDIA card, must take enabled this options:
Code:
$ cd /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver && make config
Configuration Options
===> The following configuration options are available for nvidia-driver-295.59:
FREEBSD_AGP=off: Use FreeBSD AGP GART driver
ACPI_PM=on: Enable support for ACPI Power Management
LINUX=on: Build with support for Linux compatibility
WBINVD=off: Enable heavy-weight cache-flush logic
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings

If not, modify like above, and reinstall the driver.
 
No result. The same one - no error in logs.

# startx
I see Nvidia Logo, then KDE4 loading screen, and black. I can change windows, hot-keys working properly, but just no screen picture,no icons, no menu or sub-menus.

Have you got any idea, because i'd better just refused KDE4 to other Manager
 
If your system has more than 2GB of RAM, try this fix:
Code:
$ echo 'machdep.disable_mtrrs=1' >> /boot/loader.conf
 
Take your time to get the old driver back, check out http://forums.freebsd.org/showpost.p...7&postcount=11.

No result...

Try to compile the Nvidia driver without Linux options.

Compiling without LInux opt led to the dead screen while loading KDE, even icons didn't load, though tty worked nice, and had to kill Xorg and KDEinit with # kill -9.

So, I decided just to reinstall the whole system. This one was my experiment, I'll write a short man, how I did it on my Dell Vostro 1500.

Thank you!
