Hello, I recently installed FreeBSD and the drivers for my video card from NVidia. Everything seems to work fine, I can do simple openGL stuff and everything, but when I try to draw a vertex buffer it crashes. The driver is still beta, so I guess this is not too unexpected. Are any of you also running FreeBSD with an NVidia card? Have the same problems?
I had the same problem (with linux and freebsd..) some time ago - never found a solution though.

It''s likely the drivers'' fault. You can try disabling AGP and seeing if that''s a temporary solution. If that works, it doesn''t really indicate if it''s the AGP drivers or NVidia''s drivers fault, however. If that doesn''t fix it, I''d report it to NVidia. I haven''t had any VBO problems with NVidia''s 4xxx series drivers, if that''s any consolation.
