I've had the same issue, but I think I solved it since its working for me. If I had to guess, this was Jul 27, 2007 that I went through this. I did something similar or harder in May 2007, but the driver versions were older then and so was the ports tree -- it was also on 6.2-release-p2. uname -a FreeBSD philip.hq.rws 7.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT #0: Thu Jul 26 16:44:37 EDT 2007 root@philip.office.rws:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 nvidia0: <GeForce 8600 GTS> port 0xdc80-0xdcff mem 0xde000000-0xdeffffff,0xc0000000-0xcfffffff,0xdc000000-0xddffffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci1 nvidia0: [GIANT-LOCKED] nvidia0: [ITHREAD] ls -ld /var/db/pkg/nvidia* drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel - 512B Sep 4 18:34:47 2007 /var/db/pkg/nvidia-driver-100.14.11/ ls -1d /var/db/pkg/xorg-* /var/db/pkg/xorg-7.2/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-apps-7.2/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-cf-files-1.0.2_2/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-docs-1.3,1/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-drivers-7.2/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-fonts-100dpi-7.2/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-fonts-7.2/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-fonts-75dpi-7.2/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-fonts-cyrillic-7.2/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-fonts-miscbitmaps-7.2/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-fonts-truetype-7.2/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-fonts-type1-7.2/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-libraries-7.2_1/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-protos-7.2/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-server-1.2.0_2,1/ /var/db/pkg/xorg-server-1.2.99.903_1,1/ cat /var/db/ports/nvidia-driver/options # This file is auto-generated by 'make config'. # No user-servicable parts inside! # Options for nvidia-driver-1.0.9746_5 _OPTIONS_READ=nvidia-driver-1.0.9746_5 WITHOUT_FREEBSD_AGP=true WITHOUT_VM86_INT10CALL=true WITHOUT_ACPI=true WITH_LINUX=true grep LINUX /etc/make.conf OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=fc6 grep compat /etc/sysctl.conf compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.16 cd /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver-100> find . . ./files ./files/pkg-message.in ./Makefile ./distinfo ./pkg-descr ./pkg-plist I believe I deleted all the patch files here other then you see listed and tweaked the Makefile accordingly. I also edited the source code to remove a #ifdef around FreeBSD 7.x so that it used the 6.x version even though its on 7.x. (argument list to the function was wrong) This might be fixed by now. This was a hard compile error though, not the coredumps and reboots I do know this drove me f'ing bonkers when I tried to set this and was going to file a PR but $work never game me time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Philip M.
