Configuration Options:- ===> The following configuration options are available for nvidia-driver-devel-575.64.1402000:
ACPI_PM=on: ACPI Power Management support

===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
- Options name:
- x11_nvidia-driver-devel
- USES:
- kmod uidfix xorg tar:xz
- pkg-message:
- For install:
- To use these drivers, make sure that you have loaded the NVidia kernel
module, by running
# kldload nvidia-modeset
on the command line, or by putting ``nvidia-modeset'' on the ``kld_list''
variable in /etc/rc.conf, either manually or by running
# sysrc kld_list+=nvidia-modeset
If you build this port with FreeBSD AGP GART driver, make sure you have
agp.ko kernel module installed and loaded, since nvidia.ko will depend
on it, or have your kernel compiled with "device agp". Otherwise, the
NVidia kernel module will not load. Also, please set correct value for
``Option "NvAGP"'' in ``Device'' section of your X11 configuration file.
When building with Linux compatibility support, make sure that linux.ko
module is available as well (or have it compiled in kernel). It can be
loaded via /boot/loader.conf, or later in the boot process if you add
linux_enable="YES"
to your /etc/rc.conf.
If X.org cannot start and reports
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to obtain a shared memory identifier.
in /var/log/Xorg.0.log while actually you have ``options SYSVSHM''
enabled in kernel, the sysctl ``kern.ipc.shmall'' should be increased.
Because in certain 570 versions GSP firmware is known to cause issues
with suspend/resume, thus, disabled by default for now.
On the other hand, some GPUs are known NOT to work without GSP
firmware support.
To enable GSP firmware add hw.nvidia.registry.EnableGpuFirmware=1
to your loader.conf.

graphics/nvidia-drm[,510,515,61,66]-kmod-devel: Add new ports
Add *-devel versions of nvidia drivers
These ports provides supports for New Feature Branch (NFB) of upstream
nvidia drivers like existing legacy branches of ports.
In some cases, supports for cutting edge GPUs are provided via
NFB of driver packages or Beta branch of drivers.
As Beta Branch of drivers cannot be recommended widely, we decided to
add support for NFB as *-devel version.
This new *-devel versions tracks the latest non-Beta versions
regardless it's NFB or Production Branch of drivers. (Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above  ) |
