  This   was  my  older  test deploy  desktop  with  the  PASCAL Nvidia  
Quadro P2000

vgapci0@pci0:1:0:0:     class=0x030000 rev=0xa1 hdr=0x00 vendor=0x10de 
device=0x1c30 subvendor=0x10de subdevice=0x11b3
     vendor     = 'NVIDIA Corporation'
     device     = 'GP106GL [Quadro P2000]'
     class      = display
     subclass   = VGA

         Nvidia  580.95.05    was  pulled  from  the  repos.

/*from  /var/run/dmesg.boot: */  Here  you  see a clean boot  up    of  
the  NVIDIA   DRM   function.

     All  Versions   of the   Proprietary NVIDIA  Driver  needs  the  " 
LINUX"  " LINUX64"   kernel drivers.  to  RUN.
    Linux.ko  is NOT  nedded  to  install  the  Driver Packages  , but 
IS  needed  to execute .

*/  to be  added    to  /boot/loader.conf /*

hw.nvidiadrm.modeset=1

/*  to be  added  to  /etc/rc.conf */

   linux_enable="YES"

  dbus_enable="YES"

  kld_list="nvidia-drm"

  ALSO:


                  Script  did not install  emulators/linux-base-rl9     
package
                  Script  did  not   enter  the   linsysfs   and the   
linprocfs   in  /etc/fstab.
                   Script  did not  install  Nvidia  packages: 
x11/nvidia-xconfig , x11/nvidia-settings  x11/linux-nvidia-libs  , 
graphics/nvidia-texture-tools

              After  adding  all  of the  above  I  had  a  fully 
functioning   KDE/NVIDIA/Xorg    setup   and  astro/google-Earth was 
using   the  GPU using linux-nvidia-libs.
              the  astro/Google-Earth     package  is  a  good  test  
  that  the  system  is  using  the  GPU  as  intended.
              If  I  have  Fumbled   the  setup  and not installed  the  
  LINUX  parts properly,    the  Google-Earth  app  really struggles  
  and  the  FANS  in  the  machine
               revs up  to  top speed as the  CPU  max out.    With 
linux emulation  installed and  the linux nvidia_libraries installed  
the  GPU  does  the  work.
