Trouble Installing Nvidia Drivers

I've been trying to get the Nvidia drivers working and have faced multiple problems.

Currently i'm getting this error:

Installation of the Linux base system is finished. The Linux kernel
mode, which must be enabled for Linux binaries to run, is now
enabled. Linux mode can be enabled permanently with the linux_enable
variable of rc.conf(5).

----------------------
You should enable Linux mode with the linux_enable variable of rc.conf(5).
Depending on the version of FreeBSD you are using you may have to increase
the emulated linux version via compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.18 in
sysctl.conf(5). Check via "sysctl compat.linux.osrelease" that it shows a
lower version number before setting it.
----------------------

If you want to use shared memory in Linux applications, you need to set up
a link from /dev/shm to a suitable place, e.g. by adding the following line
to /etc/devfs.conf (takes effect on each boot):
        link /tmp shm

To make use of NIS you have to adjust yp.conf and nsswitch.conf in
/compat/linux/etc/ accordingly. For example:

Set your yp-server and yp-domainname in yp.conf:
        domainname      my.yp.domainname
        ypserver        my.yp.server

Let your lists for hosts, passwd and group be resolved via nsswitch.conf:
        passwd: files nis
        shadow: files nis
        group:  files nis
        hosts:  files dns nis

WARNING: doing work which needs to chroot into the linux base may not work.
In such cases (e.g. cross-development) you are better suited with a linux_dist
port.

===> SECURITY REPORT:
      This port has installed the following files which may act as network
      servers and may therefore pose a remote security risk to the system.
/compat/linux/lib/libdb-4.7.so

===>>> Done displaying pkg-message files

Here is what I've done, I don't know what to try next.

Code:
portmaster x11/xorg
sysrc linux_enable="YES"

When I attempted to install here it said the error:

Code:
    ===>  Cleaning for nvidia-driver-346.96
    ===>  nvidia-driver-346.96 requires kernel source files in /usr/src.
    *** Error code 1

So I rebooted and checked out the services through svn as per the handbook.

Code:
reboot
portmaster security/ca_root_nss
portmaster devel/subversion
svn checkout https://svn.FreeBSD.org/base/stable/10 /usr/src
portmaster x11/nvidia-driver

Which is when I got the error at the top.

HELP!
 
You checked out the source code for 10-STABLE when you're probably running on a -RELEASE. Checkout the correct sources for your system.
 
So what is the correct way to get the kernel source? I've seen people saying to fetch a tarball, others say do a svn checkout. I'm on 10.3.

I'm getting this error:
Code:
    ===>  Cleaning for nvidia-driver-346.96
    ===>  nvidia-driver-346.96 requires kernel source files in /usr/src.
    *** Error code 1

Is the correct answer to this message:

1. Checkout the tree with svn as the handbook says:
svn checkout https://svn.FreeBSD.org/${repository}/${branch} ${lwcdir}

so for me:
svn checkout https://svn.freebsd.org/base/release/10.3.0/ /usr/src

Or

2. As I found elsewhere, fetch a tarball:
fetch ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/10.3-RELEASE/src.txz
Unpack the archive to /usr/src:
tar -C /-xvzf src.txz

Should this really be so difficult?

OK, I went ahead and fetched the tarball then tried again.

I tried:

portmaster x11/nvidia-driver

This time I got this error:

Try disabling the LINUX option in the port. I am curious if you also run into problems without it.
Dont I need it?

Do I need to fetch a ports tarball as well? Like I did with usr/src? Why is it saying:
Code:
pkg-static: Unable to access file /usr/ports/***
 
Dont I need it?
No, it's optional. You only need it if you want to run Linux binaries that require OpenGL.
Do I need to fetch a ports tarball as well? Like I did with usr/src?
How did you install the ports in the first place?
Why is it saying:
Something went wrong during staging. The warnings all seem to be related to the LINUX option in the port's pkg-plist hence my idea to disable it.
 
You can remove your ports tree entirely and fetch a new one instead. I remember having this weird type of error (well, kind of) in the past, replacing the ports tree helped. And this will not effect in any way your already installed ports, because all the configuration settings you've possibly made are not in /usr/ports.

Or, this problem of yours may be due to a failing HDD, too. You know, they don't fail entirely all at once, all starts from strange behaviours...

One thing is clear: enabling/disabling linux support has nothing to do with the port's ability to build. I've just updated my ports tree and rebuilt x11/nvidia-driver (with linux support enabled) -- just to check it for you. It builds (using make command in /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver) all right and all the libs missing in your case are there in the ${WORKDIR}. I didn't make install though, because I prefer using ports-mgmt/synth and that'll take a lot of time now.

BTW, you can also try if it works using simple make command.

Great, thanks. I'll try that.
 
It's not very clear in the handbook I think. I never quite understood what the base/release/ was for. As far as I know it's 10.3-RELEASE but without any security or errata updates. So it's not the correct tree to track, that's for sure. The /base/releng/10.3 has 10.3-RELEASE including the security and errata updates and is the one you should use.

OK, so
I tried deleting my ports tree re-extracting, and checked out svn again and tried the build again.

Code:
rm -r /usr/ports/*
portsnap fetch extract
svn checkout https://svn.freebsd.org/base/releng/10.3 /usr/src/

After trying again I got the same error.

BTW, you can also try if it works using simple make command.

I then rolled back to right before the attempted install and ran

Code:
cd /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver && make

I'm not sure what to make o this:

+++ Some programs may need linprocfs, please add it to /etc/fstab! +++

Running linux ldconfig...
This software is based in part on the work of the FreeType Team.
See <URL:http://www.freetype.org/>.

Installation of the Linux base system is finished. The Linux kernel
mode, which must be enabled for Linux binaries to run, is now
enabled. Linux mode can be enabled permanently with the linux_enable
variable of rc.conf(5).

----------------------
You should enable Linux mode with the linux_enable variable of rc.conf(5).
Depending on the version of FreeBSD you are using you may have to increase
the emulated linux version via compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.18 in
sysctl.conf(5). Check via "sysctl compat.linux.osrelease" that it shows a
lower version number before setting it.
----------------------

If you want to use shared memory in Linux applications, you need to set up
a link from /dev/shm to a suitable place, e.g. by adding the following line
to /etc/devfs.conf (takes effect on each boot):
        link /tmp shm

To make use of NIS you have to adjust yp.conf and nsswitch.conf in
/compat/linux/etc/ accordingly. For example:

Set your yp-server and yp-domainname in yp.conf:
        domainname      my.yp.domainname
        ypserver        my.yp.server

Let your lists for hosts, passwd and group be resolved via nsswitch.conf:
        passwd: files nis
        shadow: files nis
        group:  files nis
        hosts:  files dns nis

WARNING: doing work which needs to chroot into the linux base may not work.
In such cases (e.g. cross-development) you are better suited with a linux_dist
port.

      This port has installed the following files which may act as network
      servers and may therefore pose a remote security risk to the system.

      risk to the system. FreeBSD makes no guarantee about the security of
      ports included in the Ports Collection. Please type 'make deinstall'
      to deinstall the port if this is a concern.

I'll try tomorrow again without LINUX, no time tonight.
 
So I ran make install and unless i'm mistaken it was successful. Why would it fail using portmaster? Shouldn't they be doing the same thing?

Does this look right?

To use these drivers, make sure that you have loaded the NVidia kernel
module, by doing

        # kldload nvidia

or adding

        nvidia_load="YES"

to your /boot/loader.conf.

If you build this port with FreeBSD AGP GART driver, make sure you have
agp.ko kernel module installed and loaded, since nvidia.ko will depend
on it, or have your kernel compiled with "device agp".  Otherwise, the
NVidia kernel module will not load.  Also, please set correct value for
``Option "NvAGP"'' in ``Device'' section of your X11 configuration file.

When building with Linux compatibility support, make sure that linux.ko
module is available as well (or have it compiled in kernel).  It can be
loaded via /boot/loader.conf, or later in the boot process if you add

        linux_enable="YES"

to your /etc/rc.conf.

If X.org cannot start and reports

        (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to obtain a shared memory identifier.

in /var/log/Xorg.0.log while actually you have ``options SYSVSHM''
enabled in kernel, the sysctl ``kern.ipc.shmall'' should be increased.

See /usr/local/share/doc/NVIDIA_GLX-1.0/README for more information.
