Thanks for replying. I suspect you're looking in the "latest" repo. I'm
in the "quarterly" which has the 95 version.

Hello all,
I just upgraded my server from 14.3 to 15.0. It went mostly
successfully, but I can't get my NVIDIA video working.
When I install the driver, it also installs the kernel module. But
they aren't the same version. When I try to run Xorg, it spits out an
error because of this.
Any clues, please.
Thanks in advance,
Graham

Hello Graham
The latest nvidia-{driver,kmod}-580* on pkg.freebsd.org are
nvidia-driver-580.105.08 NVidia graphics card binary drivers for
hardware OpenGL rendering
nvidia-kmod-580.105.08.1500068 kmod part of NVidia graphics card

There's no 580.95 there.
