**** 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

Use opt/gl-select from ports to select the correct gl/glx
libraries and extensions like so:

	# gl-select nvidia


POST-REMOVE

Use opt/gl-select from ports to revert to the x11r7 gl/glx
libraries and extensions like so:

	# gl-select xorg


When UPGRADING/DOWNGRADING the nvidia port (where the version changes),
use gl-select to revert to xorg and then re-select nvidia in order to
refresh the libGLcore and libGL symlinks, like so:

	# prt-get update nvidia-legacy-71xx
	# gl-select xorg
	# gl-select nvidia

NOTES:

The following GPUs are no longer supported in the regular NVIDIA Unified UNIX Graphics Driver. Instead, these GPUs will continue to be supported through special "Legacy GPU" drivers that will be updated periodically to add support for new versions of Linux system components (e.g., new Linux kernels, new versions of the X server, etc).

There are presently two Legacy GPU driver series. The 1.0-71xx series supports TNT, TNT2, GeForce 256, and GeForce2 GPUs. The 1.0-96xx series supports GeForce2 MX, GeForce3, GeForce4, and Quadro4 GPUs. For a complete list of the GPUs supported in each of the Legacy GPU driver series, see the lists below.

The 1.0-71xx driver supports the following set of GPUs:
NVIDIA chip name 						Device PCI ID
RIVA TNT 								0x0020
RIVA TNT2/TNT2 Pro 					0x0028
RIVA TNT2 Ultra 						0x0029
Vanta/Vanta LT 						0x002C
RIVA TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro 	0x002D
Aladdin TNT2 							0x00A0
GeForce 256 							0x0100
GeForce DDR 							0x0101
Quadro 									0x0103
GeForce2 GTS/GeForce2 Pro 			0x0150
GeForce2 Ti 							0x0151
