At this point there are no plans to repocopy for a yet another version of nvidia driver other than three legacy versions we already have. Master port will be updated to the latest stable version once people who had original problems with anything >195.22 (dougb@ et al) would test any latest version nVidia has for us and confirm their stability issues are indeed gone. ../danfe _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports(a)freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscribe(a)freebsd.org"

What is more important right now is driver stability issues people had been having. I must rely on other people testing since I was not able to reproduce most of them in my local environment. ../danfe _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports(a)freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscribe(a)freebsd.org"

FWIW, my problem with 195.36.15 has disappeared. I still can't figure out what changed. I'll give the 2^8 version a spin later this week.

Ideally, I want a stable version in 195.36.yy series before start looking at upcoming 256 ones. > make makesum && make deinstall && make install > > or will I have to change the plist somewhere Yes, plist changes are required to make the port deinstall itself cleanly. It won't affect driver stability in any way though. :-) ../danfe _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports(a)freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscribe(a)freebsd.org"
