Hello Community,
I am new to FreeBSD and have a problem with the nVidia-driver for Xorg. Yesterday I installed FreeBSD-10.3-RELEASE on my laptop (MSI CX61 with NVIDIA GeForce 820M) and build Xorg form the Ports Collection. Then I created the configuration files for the keyboard and for the screen resolution in
/usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
as described in section 5.4 of the handbook. The command
/usr/local/ports/x11/nvidia-driver
didn't cause any problems (to setup the nvidia-driver, I read this tutorial: Thread HOWTO: Setup Xorg with NVIDIA's driver.52311 ).
However, after I created /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/nvidia-driver.conf with the content
I get a black screen after starting Xorg with
to my /boot/loader.conf didn't help. Here is my loader.conf:
and the /etc/rc.conf:
This problem doesn't occur when I delete /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/nvidia-driver.conf, so maybe I don't need the file to use the graphic card? Otherwise I have no idea how to solve this problem. This is the output of
and the directory /etc/X11/ ist empty. If I failed to include important information, please let me know.
Thanks for reading and for you help.
I am new to FreeBSD and have a problem with the nVidia-driver for Xorg. Yesterday I installed FreeBSD-10.3-RELEASE on my laptop (MSI CX61 with NVIDIA GeForce 820M) and build Xorg form the Ports Collection. Then I created the configuration files for the keyboard and for the screen resolution in
/usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
as described in section 5.4 of the handbook. The command
startx starts Xorg and its default window manager TWM, so everything worked fine. Even the nvidia-driver installation from /usr/local/ports/x11/nvidia-driver
didn't cause any problems (to setup the nvidia-driver, I read this tutorial: Thread HOWTO: Setup Xorg with NVIDIA's driver.52311 ).
However, after I created /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/nvidia-driver.conf with the content
