Vamos a tratar de resolver un par de problemas que algunos usuarios pueden encontrarse al intentar instalar ciertos driver de Nvidia (Oficiales de la web) en Freebsd.

Error:

# make install
===> src (install)
install -o root -g wheel -m 555 nvidia.ko /boot/modules
kldxref /boot/modules
===> lib (install)
===> lib/libGL (install)
===> lib/libnvidia-tls (install)
===> lib/libGLcore (install)
===> lib/libXvMCNVIDIA (install)
===> lib/compat (install)
===> lib/compat/libGL (install)
===> lib/compat/libnvidia-tls (install)
===> lib/compat/libGLcore (install)
===> x11 (install)
===> x11/driver (install)
install: /lib/modules/drivers: No such file or directory
*** Error code 71
Stop in /usr/home/busi/NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86-1.0-7184/x11/driver.
*** Error code 1

*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/home/busi/NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86-1.0-7184.

Solución:

Debemos editar los siguientes ficheros y comentar (#) y añadir una linea a cada uno:

NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86-1.0-7184/x11/driver/Makefile

#DRIVERDIR= ${X11BASE}/lib/modules/drivers
DRIVERDIR= /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/

NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86-1.0-7184/x11/extension/Makefile

#LIBDIR= ${X11BASE}/lib/modules/extensions
LIBDIR= /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions


Salida correcta de la instalación:


# make install
===> src (install)
install -o root -g wheel -m 555 nvidia.ko /boot/modules
kldxref /boot/modules
===> lib (install)
===> lib/libGL (install)
===> lib/libnvidia-tls (install)
===> lib/libGLcore (install)
===> lib/libXvMCNVIDIA (install)
===> lib/compat (install)
===> lib/compat/libGL (install)
===> lib/compat/libnvidia-tls (install)
===> lib/compat/libGLcore (install)
===> x11 (install)
===> x11/driver (install)
===> x11/extension (install)
===> x11/bin (install)
===> etc (install)
===> doc (install)
Installation of the NVIDIA Accelerated Graphics Driver 1.0-7184 for FreeBSD is now complete. Please update
your XF86Config file as appropriate; see the README for details.

Solución:

Instalar: /usr/ports/misc/compat5x
Editar /etc/rc.conf añadiendo:

compat5x_enable="YES"
