Hi James I'm not sure if this is right (cause i'm a newbie to freebsd too), but i think that on the xfree site it says that the Geforce 3 card is supported under xfree 4.2 w/ an "nv" driver. "Support (accelerated) for the Riva 128, 128ZX, TNT, TNT2 (Ultra, Vanta, M64), GeForce (DDR, 256), Quadro, GeForce2 (GTS, Ultra, MX), GeForce3, and Quadro2 is provided by the "nv" driver." You may want to go to the nvidia web site and see if they have a linux/unix driver available and then install it. Installing the driver shouldn't be to hard. Usually, there's an install file w/ directions. Just download the source, unzip it and then follow the instructions. If you install from the source it'll probably tell you to do something like the following: >make >make install or something like that. hope this helps, good luck desmond >From: "James" <effdefender@earthlink.net> >Reply-To: newbie@XFree86.Org >To: <newbie@xfree86.org> >Subject: Problems running XFree86 v 4.2 on FreeBSD >Date: Sun, 30 Jun 2002 11:26:28 -0700 > >I've got an Nvidia GeForce 3 Ti200 graphics card, and I'm using the "nv" >driver. >When I try to run > >#XFree86 -xf86config XF86Config > >I get an error message: > >Symbol vgaHWUnmapMem from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/nv_drv.o is >unresolved! > >How do I go about fixing this? >Thanks in advance, >-James Turnbull > >_______________________________________________ > >Newbie@XFree86.Org >*** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: >http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie _________________________________________________________________ Join the world’s largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com _______________________________________________ Newbie@XFree86.Org *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie
