Hello,

i run 32bit version of FreeBSD (8.1). Notebook (asus k52jc sx001v) has 4GB RAM

I tried both latest official nvidia-driver-256.44 and 195.xx.xx driver from ports (x11/nvidia-driver)

Asus BIOS setup allows to set vga configuration in 2 modes: vista/win7 (hybryd graphic adapter conf i think) and reserved (i supposed this would enable just the nvidia geforce 310m cuda 1GB)

results:

1. reserved mode: only vesa driver works, nvidia0 is not recognized, just vga0

2. vista/win7 mode: devices => vga0, nvidia0 on vga0, vga1. Nothing works...i read a lot of posts in many forums and tried everything i could...vesa driver doesn't work as well

Thanks
