It has been updated frequently in the past: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.freshports.org&#x2F;x11&#x2F;nvidia-driver" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.freshports.org&#x2F;x11&#x2F;nvidia-driver</a><p>(scroll down for commit history)<p>edit: Has Nvidia been building a FreeBSD driver for the past 20 years, or did they initially port a *nix driver from a different OS to FreeBSD?

Where&#x27;s CUDA on FreeBSD, Nvidia?!

True test of LLM based coding would be to enable Nvidia cards via eGPU on Apple Silicon using this or Asahi Linux work for ML&#x2F;DL tasks. Would allow for separate upgrade paths for GPU compute &amp; main device instead of having to keep another PC just for local experiments

If Nvidia ever wants to see their GPUs on next generation PlayStation consoles, an updated FreeBSD display driver is a good stating point.

They should better have released a NetBSD driver - people would be able to port it to all the alternative OSes then.
