The nVidia GeForce 310m should be supported. Have you tried the x11/nvidia-driver? Maybe this forum posts (title: "Problems with video (nVidia GeForce 310M and FreeBSD 8.2") can help you: http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=24392 You should have no problems using the binary driver from nvidia-driver (kernel module plus X driver). I'm using it here myself with a regular nVidia PC graphics card. If your display characteristics aren't detected properly (but that should be no problem on a laptop), you are right by "hard-coding" them into xorg.conf. Please refer to the Handbook chapter about configuring X to deal with possible upcoming problems when using xorg.conf. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-config.html And also see: http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/docs/html/aei.html That document could save you from avoidable trouble. :-) > and finally i installed ubunu and freebsd on vmware. Does it run there properly? VMware defines a "virtual graphics card" that should be compatible with the X driver for Intel cards, if I remember correctly. > please help about this, i need to install freebsd on my notenbook Try to follow the instructions precisely and check each step.
