Nick, I'm running Lenny, so nvidia-glx is not in the repos...
Michal, I tried the methods on that page and it didn't work... Last
thing i tried was to install the NVIDIA way, using the Nvidia .bin
supplied from their home site...still no luck.
Which kernel do you run? (Post the output of "uname -a".)
Which nvidia card are we talking about? (Post the relevant part of your
"lspci" output.)
Which version of the nvidia driver did you install? (We need the exact
name of the file that you downloaded and executed.) Did you get any
error messages or warnings when you attempted the installation?
Change your xorg.conf to use the nvidia driver and (re)start X. After it
fails/crashes, run the following two commands and post their output:
egrep '^\((EE|WW)\)' /var/log/Xorg.0.log
egrep -i 'nvidia|glx' /var/log/Xorg.0.log
Hello,
I'm using FX5200, and i installed the NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.19-pkg1.run
package. Here is what's written in the log files and I think is relevant:
(II) NVIDIA(0): Support for GLX with the Damage and Composite X extensions
is
(II) NVIDIA(0): enabled.
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module!
(EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting ***
(II) UnloadModule: "nvidia"
(II) UnloadModule: "wfb"
(II) UnloadModule: "fb"
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
Fatal server error:
no screens found
Please provide ALL the information that I asked for in my previous
message.
Hello,
Sorry...So:
No error while installing ( except for a warning about the version of
the gcc (it 4.2 as i'm on lenny) )
