NVidia Driver Confusion

Good Afternoon folks,


I am about to do a fresh install of 7.1 on a client's machine. Dell T7400 (4) Quad Core Xeons and 8 GB ram.

Issue: NVidia 8800GTS.

The Nvidia site specifically states their driver is x86. This is an EMT64 machine.

I see a suitable X driver in ports, but it does not specifically state that is is either x86, or x86_64.

Being relatively new to BSD I apologize. I can't find the reference anywhere.

Perhaps x86 in BSD means both 32 & 64 bit architecture?


Can someone please enlighten me if I will be able to get the driver in ports to work in an EMT64 BSD Install?



Thank You!

Thank you for the clarification, and the ability to answer the question(s) on arch for myself in the future.

Again,

Thanks!
