Yes, I stand corrected. I was going by the information shown at
<http://www.freshports.org/x11/nvidia-driver-304/>  it states "A
package is not available" but I see that this is not actually the case:

curlew:/home/mike% pkg rquery "%n" -r FreeBSD nvidia-driver-304
nvidia-driver-304
curlew:/home/mike%

So, yes, installing the package is the simplest way to go.
