Did you manage to get the nvidia (not the nv) driver working as well? You may want that if you do openGL (/me will opt for ATI next time I buy a vid-card). -- =NPG= ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: Help with NV driver - More information
I just noticed that if I connect the DVI cable to the second DVI port and reboot the machine, when I start X it loads a screen full of garble (tons of lines going everywhere) but when I check the monitors diag, it says it is at 1600x1200 70h 60v Is anyone else using a Geforce ti 4600 Gainward Golden Sample (The only dual DVI geforce I know of)? -Jason -Original Message- From: Jason Dictos [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 20, 2003 8:35 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Hi, I'm having difficulty getting the nv driver to work properly on my FreeBSD 5.1 box. Recently, the nvidia driver started causing my kernel to crash consistently, so I decided to move to the non-glx enabled NV driver. Whenever that driver starts using the SAME config as the one used for the nvidia driver, the screen goes blank with unsupported resolution but you can hear the gui initializing in the background. I'm using the DVI port on the Geforce (it has dual DVI), and I know for a fact that the horizontal and vertical refresh rates are to the spec (74.9, 59.9 respectively). -Jason This email has been scanned for all viruses by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
