Hi, I suggest you read the following post to this list: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=1510354+0+/usr/local/www/db/text/2002/freebsd-current/20021110.freebsd-current It talks about the (now deprecated) kernel config option PCI_ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED_IO_RANGE. This was moved to be a loader tunable instead. If you enable this at boot time you should be able to use nvidias driver without any problems on -CURRENT. I haven't had time to try this myself yet so I cannot promise you that it will work. You can find the setting if you try "sysctl -a|grep pci", "hw.pci.allow_unsupported_io_range" should be set to one. Note that this cannot be set during runtime! Hope this helps. //David Holm To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
