README for nvidia 1.0-6629+
**** IMPORTANT ****
The POST-INSTALL only needs to be run *ONCE* after installing
the nvidia port. It is *NOT REQUIRED* when upgrading the port
if it has been run once when the port was originally installed.
**** IMPORTANT ****
*** NOTE for nvidia with udev ***
If using udev, add your user to the "video" group to be able to
use the nvidia devices required for 3d to function properly.
POST-INSTALL
Rename /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2 to something else, such
as libGL_so_1_2 and run /sbin/ldconfig. GL applications
should then use the nvidia-installed /usr/lib/libGL.so
instead. Rename /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libGLcore.a
and libglx.a to something else, such as libGLcore.a.orig and
libglx.a.orig.
nvhelper.sh will do this for you (./nvhelper.sh --install)
POST-REMOVE
Rename /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL_so_1_2 (or whatever you called
it) to libGL.so.1.2 and run /sbin/ldconfig. Also restore
libglx.a and libGLcore.a in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions.
nvhelper.sh will do this for you (./nvhelper.sh --restore)
