    That helped. Thanks!

    The only thing that works is to completely disable all AGB relevant
    things, modules and kernel options and rebuild the x11/nvidia-driver
    without any AGP-options. Maybe ther's a conflict with SMP/HTT ?

    You may find some additional infos unter
    http://rhb.uugrn.org/temp/FreeBSD/daemon/

    The files located under http://rhb.uugrn.org/temp/X11-nvidia/ are the
    same like before it worked.
