Problems with GeForce 8800 GTX and Xorg 7.2

[dael]

Hello,

after Upgrading xorg to 7.2 the recent driver from ports does not work anymore for me (1.0-9746). I tried to deinstall all packages and do a fresh xorg install...same problem.

The X-Server starts and the nvidia-splash appears, afterwards the server crashes while loading glx. My card is detected as
nvidia0: <GeForce 8800 GTX> port 0xcc80-0xccff mem 0xd5000000-0xd5ffffff,0xc0000000-0xcfffffff,0xd6000
000-0xd7ffffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci6
nvidia0: [GIANT-LOCKED]

I also tried reinstalling the driver again and again, nothing changed.
The recent beta-driver also does not change anything.

Regards,
Daniel.

I'm not an expert but look at line 1309-1315 and 1633-1636 of nvidia-bug-report.log.
Try removing the driver from ports ( pkg-delete -i "nvidia-*" ) and reinstall the beta driver again.

Well, You are right. But that does not solve my problem. The problem existed before I tried the beta driver, but now I am unable to get rid of these messages 8-(. Although the kernel-module is definitively the one from the ports (deleted by hand and reinstalled).

Please generate and attach an nvidia-bug-report.log (with the `nvidia-bug-report.sh` script) file against 100.14.06 (with any older ports/ packages uninstalled).

OK, I will do so on Wednesday when I am back home. Hope we can solve this issue...its boring without X 8-(

OK, I did the following:

#get rid of the port
pkg_deinstall nvidia-driver
#install beta
cd NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86-100.14.06
make install

OK, this failed because there are some wrong paths in Makefiles. Xorg lives in /usr/local/lib/xorg and not /usr/local/lib

afterwards I started X with logverbose as supposed, the beta screen appeared and server crashed. Bug report is attached

Regards,
Daniel.
