Hi Folks,
I'm having trouble getting the nvidia.ko recognizing my nvidia card.
As far as I understood the nvidia website, the card itself should be
supported.
To the facts:
vgapci0@pci0:2:0:0: class=0x030000 card=0x023810de chip=0x00fe10de
rev=0xa2 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Nvidia Corp'
device = 'NVBR02GL Quadro FX 1300'
class = display
subclass = VGA
when kldloading:
nvidia0: <Unknown> on vgapci0
vgapci0: child nvidia0 requested pci_enable_busmaster
vgapci0: child nvidia0 requested pci_enable_io
nvidia0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
nvidia0: [ITHREAD]
this is a recent port of nvidia-driver:
pkg_info nvidia-driver-173.14.12
The 177.* driver seems to be the wrong one, according to dmesg:
NVRM: The NVIDIA Quadro FX 1300 GPU installed in this system is
NVRM: supported through the NVIDIA 173.14.xx Legacy drivers. Please
NVRM: visit http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html for more
NVRM: information. The 177.80 NVIDIA driver will ignore
NVRM: this GPU. Continuing probe...
That's why I installed x11/nvidia-driver-173/
I'm just csup'ing the latest RELENG_7 to recompile world, although I
doubt
that it helps.
FreeBSD right now is:
FreeBSD motor.mobile.rz 7.1-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 7.1-PRERELEASE #0: Wed Sep
10 18:39:19 CEST 2008 root@motor:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC
any idea how to get the nvidia kernel driver up 'n' running?
I'd really like to get rid of xorg's nv driver and use nvidia instead...
Complete dmesg can be found here:

Complete pciconf -lv here (the hostbridge entries are suspicious):

TIA,
