How do you turn those down? /boot/loader.conf? I tried saying
"hw.nvidia.card.rates="2x 1x" but that didn't seem to do anything (I have
a feeling that putting that in /boot/loader.conf makes no sense...please
consider this a desperate cry for help.)
Is it a bad sign that my sysctl has some weird values in it?
sysctl -a | grep nvidia
nvidia 21 13K 13K 21 16,32,256
hw.nvidia.agp.card.rates: 4x 2x 1x

I have yet to try the posted suggestion of NOT loading "agp" into the kernel
or having it as a module...maybe that's what "WITH_FREEBSD_AGP" refers
to...hmmmmm.....
Thanks,
Mike
