Trying to run KDE 6 Plasma with Wayland....

… 560.28.03 … could it work to install it directly ?

NVIDIA's download page wrongly states:

tar xzf NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86_64-560.28.03.tar.gz && cd NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86_64-560.28.03 && make install

Instead:

tar xzf NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86_64-560.28.03.tar.xz && cd NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86_64-560.28.03 && make install

This is false.

Update :

Below you can see that the new nvidia driver does not provide the module nvidia-drm.ko even if the driver 560 can be used (it happens inside the vm),while my host that run the old driver,can load it. Without this module,kde6 will not work for sure.

I already have 550.54.14 and I see the bug. So,I'm looking for informations about how to upgrade it to 560. Or better,about how can I produce the nvidia-drm.ko module because I've installed the 560 and it is working.
 
As you're already doing very complicated (GPU passthrough and so on), I thought you already know what/how to do this basic, really basic thing.

Puuting it aside,
  • you need REALLY ONE OF graphics/nvidia-drm-*-kmod port installed for /boot/modules/nvidia-drm.ko,
  • graphics/nvidia-drm-kmod chooses the one which best fits with your base FreeBSD version at fresh installation,
  • graphics/nvidia-drm-*-kmod doenn't build with legacy drivers,
  • graphics/nvidia-drm-*-kmod must be in sync with x11/nvidia-driver and installed/running kernel.
Keep the above in mind, you can (basically) override the version of x11/nvidia-driver (and x11/linux-nvidia-libs) to be built (via ports) by setting DISTVERSION variable and adding -DNO_CHECKSUM option like make DISTVERSION=560.28.03 -DNO_CHECKSUM.
But for graphics/nvidia-drm-*-kmod ports, this overriding with DISTVERSION variable actually does not work with some reason that neither ashafer and I could determine why.
The only way is to edit x11/nvidia-driver/Makefile.version file. Option -DNO_CHECKSUM is still needed.

This works for 560.28.03 (and will even newer) beta driver, UNLESS YOU ARE USING GPUs Turing OR NEWER ARCHITECTURES. 560 series of drivers added 2 new kernel modules for GSP firmware and need a patch to install them. I've already instrduced it in another thread.

And another note. If you are going to build graphics/nvidia-drm-[515|61]-kmod on stable/14 or 14.1, patch on PR 279539 is mandatory (unfortunately, not yet landed on ports tree).

And the final note. I'm neither nvidia insider, committer nor ports maintainer. Just filing PRs for update when I found something required but no one seems to be working on at the moment, of course only when it is possible for me.

No.
Look deeeeeeply in your screen shot.
With some reason, gsed seems attempted to be fetched with invalid (same as which you're attempting to fetch for x11/nvidia-driver) version.

Make looking the whole log (this case, only last part are shown in screen shot, though) from the command you invoked through the end your habit.
I can't see from which directory you invoked what command line.
So cannot determine what's the problem.

For me, with intentionally deleted distfile of x11/nvidia-driver 560.28.03,
Code:

You need restoring original Makefile if its whole content is just the above.

DISTVERSION should be set on command line (or editing x11/nvidia-driver/Makefike.version, NOT x11/nvidia-driver/Makefike) as I described my previous post. Note that in x11/nvidia-driver/Makefike.version, the variable name is NVIDIA_DISTVERSION.
This is not to directly affect with legacy drivers.
This overriding mechanism is basically to share the same x11/nvidia-driver/Makefile with itself and legacy drivers. We can just abuse it to try newer drivers.
 
Refresh the webpage and give a look at the procedure followed on post #237. I've got no errors,so probably I did everything correctly. Now the problem is that it hasn't created any nvidia-drm.ko file.

--> And another note. If you are going to build graphics/nvidia-drm-[515|61]-kmod on stable/14 or 14.1, patch on PR 279539 is mandatory (unfortunately, not yet landed on ports tree).

Now I'm going to compile the port graphics/nvidia-drm-61-kmod. I'm using FreeBSD-14.1-RELEASE-p2,do I need the patch ? You said that it is for stable,but I'm running RELEASE ;)

Click to expand...
Yes. You need the patch.
I've written stable/14 AND 14.1. 14.1 means 14.1-Release[-p*], as there is no stable/14.1 branch. From stable/14 branch, releng/14.1 branch was branched. 14.1-Release and following -p* patch releases are built using releng/14.1 branch.
 
Probably I have applied your patch wrongly,because it gives this error :

this is how I have patched the file :

First of all, don't attempt to try make makesum. This case, it would be harmless, but for some ports like x11/nvidia-driver which have slave ports and distinfo contains informations for itself and all slave ports, it completely breaks ALL informations EXCEPT the one which you are attempting.
Option -DNO_CHECKSUM for make is for ignoring distinfo.

And is your ports tree up-to-date (at least commit 307f75413336d33a6570616e5e2af3b659e2951d or newer) main branch?
If not, or you are on quarterly (currently 2024Q3), you need another patch on Phablicator Differential Revision D45400. You can display it by clicking Actions button, choosing Download Raw Diff menu item, then, you can save page with your browser.
The above-mentioned commit is which it landed on ports main branch.
Not yet merged into 2024Q4 (unlikely).
 
This is the original file to patch :

This is how the file looks after that I have applied the patch :

and this is the error I get :
