Sorry. I should have mentioned that I'm using a GeForce FX 5200 card. Because of it's "age", NVIDIA says that it need the the "nvidia-driver-173...", but NVIDIA also says they do not have a version that works for FreeBSD 8.x. I was hoping someone in the FreeBSD community might have ported it. Unfortunately, I'm no video card hacker. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
