Hi all,
I'm running 7.2-STABLE/amd64 on a Dell 830, and have been attempting
to get XOrg working with the "nv" driver. However, it fails with:
X.Org X Server 1.6.1
Release Date: 2009-4-14
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
Build Operating System: FreeBSD 7.2-PRERELEASE amd64
Current Operating System: FreeBSD jonathan.chen 7.2-STABLE FreeBSD
7.2-STABLE #0: Tue May 19 09:24:33 NZST 2009
r...@jonathan.chen:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64
Build Date: 11 May 2009 08:36:27AM
Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org
to make sure that you have the latest version.
Markers: (--) probed, (**) from config file, (==) default setting,
(++) from command line, (!!) notice, (II) informational,
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", Time: Wed May 20 13:27:55 2009
(==) Using config file: "/usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf"
(EE) Failed to load module "xtrap" (module does not exist, 0)

(EE) NV(0): Failed to determine the amount of available video memory
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
Fatal server error:
no screens found
Is there any hope of getting this to work?
Yes there is, and you'll be happy to know I just got done smooting
my X install out - just in time to try using the latest driver
from the nVidia site (but that's a story for another time).
To the point; to best serve you, one will need to see the output from
/var/log/Xorg.0.log, and a copy of your xorg.conf file. Without this
information /nobody/ can posibly know where you/it went wrong. You
would do well to search the posts I made yesterday in a thread. Search
for mtrr: invalid argument. I posted all the info you already should have. ;)
But you'll see a good example to get some ideas for your own.
Have fun.
