There already is a driver for the nVidia 740M, directly from nVidia, you just have to install it. Just run: pkg install nvidia-driver And follow the on-screen instructions. > I am also looking for general guides on compiling linux software under BSD, > writing custom bootloaders and gui frameworks, as well as writing some > custom server side frameworks and networking frameworks as well as > tutorials for writing some custom audio frameworks. > > you could even try at least to get guitarix, rakarrack,vmpk, ardour,lmms, > hydrogen, blender, etcetera to run under bsd, I think it can be done. > > If your feeling really ambitious you might try to get synaptic to run under > bsd. > > > My goal is to build my own PC(like my own microchips), so any and all > relevant information that I havent found yet, I am looking for! > > Tutorials could even include writing custom kernels. > > As well I am looking for tutorials on data compression and execution.

There are some additional 'books' and 'articles' provided here: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/ https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/ For example, you mentioned being interested in just boot loaders. The current boot model and the code for it are explained in the FreeBSD Architecture Handbook: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/arch-handbook/ > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-doc@freebsd.org mailing list > https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-doc > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-doc-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" > -- Allan Jude
