Nvidia driver on 8.0?

Hmmm, not for me :)

Did you tried setting up /etc/X11/xorg.conf like described here?
/usr/local/share/doc/NVIDIA_GLX-1.0/html/chapter-06-section-02.html
 
Or, as you have nvidia-xconfig-190.36, did you tried configuring with it?
Do you have glx loaded and dri not loaded in your xorg.conf (as it should be)?


Do you have something like this in xorg.conf?
Code: 
       RgbPath      "/usr/local/lib/X11/rgb"
What removing it?

Thanks - Checking this now and will report back after some reboots....

In the meantime, some background:

I had it working fine on a previous 7-STABLE installation on the same hardware. This 8-RC installation is a fresh build.

At the moment I'm back on the nv driver. When I switch to nvidia in xorg.conf, the machine start OK, but the screen goes blank when X starts (LCD backlight also appears to switch off). The good news is that the fan speed on the video card drops at the same moment, due to the ACPI features of the nvidia driver (nv driver doesn't do that), so at least something is working.

Back soon, and thanks!

Well using the nv driver when you have the nvidia driver installed is certainly the source of the GLX errors.

You'll still need to get at the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file to see if you (or we) can figure out the source of the black screen when using the nvidia driver.

Hi, thanks for your help so far. I take your point, although glxinfo returned proper output yesterday (albeit with software rendering), using nv and before I installed the nvidia driver from ports.

Anyway here's the 1st part of the Xorg.0.log file here from the last attempt to boot with the nvidia driver (second half in following post due to posting restrictions!):

Or, as you have nvidia-xconfig-190.36, did you tried configuring with it?
Do you have glx loaded and dri not loaded in your xorg.conf (as it should be)?


Do you have something like this in xorg.conf?
Code: 
       RgbPath      "/usr/local/lib/X11/rgb"
What removing it?

Hi, dri was enabled in xorg so I removed that line, but the xorg.0.log file indicates that it's loaded by default anyway.

I don't have the RgbPath line - where should it go?

Thanks,

Try disabling dri explicitly.
Try using this as module section
Code: 
Section "Module"
        Load  "extmod"
        Load  "dbe"
        Disable "dri"
        Disable "dri2"
        Load  "glx"
        Load  "record"
EndSection

Nowhere.


Is hal installed and started?
There is a problem with it in your log.

I tried this, still no luck.

I agree there appears to be a problem in the log. hal is enabled in rc.conf and appears to be running:

Code: 
root@nostromo> ps -A|grep hal
  944  ??  Ss     0:00.99 /usr/local/sbin/hald
  948  ??  I      0:00.03 hald-runner
