Description Sergey 2016-11-04 15:04:20 UTC 
Hello.

I have Nvidia NVS 300 video card, but when I'm trying to start Xorg it fails to initialize and I get following error: "failed shmoo sddr3 link training" in the log file.
After googling a bit I've found following link:

https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/598926/freebsd/freebsd-9-1-failed-shmoo-sddr3-link-training-error/

It's been stated there that FreeBSD kernel misses a hardware bug workaround for NVS 300. Is it possible to implement this workaraund?
I would be very disapointing to have a new videocard with broken support, not being able to use it.

Best regards,
Sergey.
