Have you tried x11/nvidia-driver-304?

Peace,

[Ben Woods suggested in a separate response to load nvidia-modeset]

I went down a long long path, which I hope to make more traveled.  Short
answer is:

1) poudriere bulk -c on upgrade is your friend (people told me this, I
   should listen to them).

2) Chop down old xorg.conf with lots of stuff linux has not needed for
   a while to $ cat /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-nvidia.conf

   Section "Device"
 Identifier "NVIDIA Card"
 VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
 Driver "nvidia"
EndSection

3) add nvidia-modeset to kld_list in /etc/rc.conf

Upshot is now with x11/nvidia-driver benchmarks/glmark2 works fine,
and no complaints from clients.

So Ben, yeah, amongst the other two issues, you helped with that clue.
David, you gave me the idea to try the other drivers (and the nvidia
docs seem to indicate that hw support migrates down) and the identical
error produced by the other drivers was a clue as well.

Many thanks,
Russell

NV is the xorg nvidia driver, not the proprietary driver from
x11/nvidia-driver*.

Do you have an xorg.conf that specifies nvidia? You can generate one
with nvidia-xconfig from  x11/nvidia-xconfig.

Just a guess, you haven't been bitten by the recent update that is
associated with this UPDATING entry have you?

GeForce GTX 750 Ti upgraded to unsupported

2016-09-08 Thread Russell L. Carter 

Greetings,

Since I upgraded to 11/stable from 10/stable, it appears that my video
card is no longer supported by either nvidia-driver or nvidia-driver-340:

 77.208] (WW) NV: Ignoring unsupported device 0x10de1380 (GM107 
[GeForce GTX 750 Ti]) at 01@00:00:0


The error message is identical for either.  Either port provides
graphics via the VESA driver.

However, a typical error is:

rcarter@feyerabend> firefox
Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0"

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Russell
