Error installing the Nvidia driver

E

eXemplo

I was using Slackware. I installed FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE 64 bit today and I'm trying to install the NVidia driver, but
I'm having trouble. I'm following this tutorial: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/compiz-fusion/nvidia-setup.html

I typed:
# cd /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver
# make install clean

Terminal:
Code: 
root@casa:/home/lucas # cd /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver
root@casa:/usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver # make install clean
===>  Installing for nvidia-driver-319.32

I'm using KDE 4.8.4. I don't know what to do. My graphics card: EVGA GTX 460 1 GB 256 bits. I'm totally new to FreeBSD, and do not know anyone who uses it to help me. I'm using Google translator.

Thank you all.

Thank @SirDice.

Now I am getting this error:

To use these drivers, make sure that you have loaded the NVidia kernel
module, by doing

        # kldload nvidia

or adding

        nvidia_load="YES"

to your /boot/loader.conf.

If you build this port with FreeBSD AGP GART driver, make sure you have
agp.ko kernel module installed and loaded, since nvidia.ko will depend
on it, or have your kernel compiled with "device agp".  Otherwise, the
NVidia kernel module will not load.  Also, please set correct value for
``Option "NvAGP"'' in ``Device'' section of your X11 configuration file.

When building with Linux compatibility support, make sure that linux.ko
module is available as well (or have it compiled in kernel).  It can be
loaded via /boot/loader.conf, or later in the boot process if you add

        linux_enable="YES"

to your /etc/rc.conf.

If X.org cannot start and reports

        (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to obtain a shared memory identifier.

in /var/log/Xorg.0.log while actually you have ``options SYSVSHM''
enabled in kernel, the sysctl ``kern.ipc.shmall'' should be increased.

See /usr/local/share/doc/NVIDIA_GLX-1.0/README for more information.

Strange:

===>   nvidia-driver-319.32 is already installed

is saying that the driver is already installed,[ ]but where?
 
You really should start reading console output. It says nvidia-driver is already installed, and to reinstall it you should do make deinstall reinstall clean. Everything is installed to /usr/local (if you don't change it of course), so start looking in /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/drivers and check if you've got nvidia.ko loaded into kernel.

The next logical step is to install x11/nvidia-xconfig and just configure your X.Org with it.

I looked into /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/drivers and do not have nvidia.ko.
