I was talking with some fellows who seemed rather confident that if a FBSD developer would port the rather small NVIDIA_kernel to FBSD that Nvidia would make their driver available for XF86 on FBSD. I'm personally not familiar with FBSD development, still with linux, but would love to switch over to FBSD, but this is very difficult until there are solid drivers for XF86 for the Nvidia boards, as I run an Elsa GeForce 2 Ultra and the current XF86 open drivers are flaky on my system. This was very exciting news to a would-be FBSD user! One of the persons also mentioned that it would be good to get BSDi involved as well. The source from which I gleaned this idea was from Open Projects IRC in channel #nvidia. Whoever starts working on this may be able to find help from the people there. It also may be possible to find people connected with Nvidia there. Here is a link to the current driver: ftp://ftp1.detonator.nvidia.com/pub/drivers/english/XFree86_40/0.9-769/NVIDIA_kernel-0.9-769.tar.gz Hope this takes off! Thanks so much for the continued development of a great OS! -GP To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
