Biffle Yes, I've turned off all the debugging stuff. I've also removed Load "dri" from XF86Config etc. Please post your kernel conf, maybe I can see where they differ (if they do). //David Holm To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

Does your kernel have various debugging features in place? If so...try turning them /off/. I kid you not. On the RC1 box here the nVidia drivers were very unstable doing 3D until the kernel was recompiled without debugging.

I can get you the kernel config, or make it available to the list if anyone's interested in this fleeting heisenbug. -Cliff L.

yet another nvidia post
Hi, I have the nvidia drivers up and running on my current box and 2d-wise they seem to be working great. But whenever I activate glx I can run glxgears two times and it runs accelerated (I even got a higher framerate than in linux), but the third time I ran it it ran for about 5s then the computer froze. 5-10s later it just reboots. This has happened every time I tried it (the last two or three times I updated world, I update approximately after 1-2 weeks). Has anyone else had this problem and/or know a solution to it? I'm not loading dri, and I've tried disabling agp. //David Holm To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
