I was not able to find the version you > mentioned with the freebsd website ports search function First, update your ports tree. This is what you are looking for: Port: nvidia-driver-195.36.15 Path: /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver Info: NVidia graphics card binary drivers for hardware OpenGL rendering Al;l of the relevant paths, etc. were in the first post I sent regarding this matter. The "173" and other drivers are deprecated and should probably be avoided. If you have one of them installed, do a "make_deinstall -dfv nvidia*" first before attempting to install the new drive and utilities. If you are still experiencing problems, post back. -- Jerry ✌ FreeBSD.user@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
