I don't think the GCC 3.4.2 import broke it. I have a -CURRENT kernel+world built post-import and the nVidia driver still works for me. (I did have to rebuilt the nvidia-driver port via "portupgrade -fu" though: the original installed version locked up my system when starting X.) My kernel is dated "Sat Jul 31 23:08:22 EDT 2004," and I think that's from sources cvsupped sometime late 30th July/early 31st July. My card probes as follows: nvidia0: mem 0xe0000000-0xe7ffffff,0xec000000-0xecffffff irq 5 at device 0.0 on pci1 pciconf -vl: nvidia0@pci1:0:0: class=0x030000 card=0x00000000 chip=0x032210de rev=0xa1 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'NVIDIA Corporation' device = 'GeForce FX 5200 [NV34.3]' class = display subclass = VGA The graphics card is installed in a uniprocessor Pentium II-300 system.
