This morning, I upgraded my desktop to 12.1 from 12.0. Everything worked fine on initial reboot, and then I upgraded all packages, which pushed me from nvidia-driver 390.87_3 -> 440.31. Upon next reboot, the nvidia-modeset.ko wasn't loaded according to kldstat (nor was nvidia.ko). (I had to look at that because X wouldn't start).
Loading it manually via
The entry in /boot/loader.conf was:
No mention of nvidia-modeset at all in dmesg/messages.
Swapping to
in /etc/rc.conf made everything work just fine.
Anyone have any ideas why the loader.conf entry no longer works?
