Hello,
This is a problem I encountered installing a driver update for a EVEA
GTX1060.I tried a number of drivers before getting success with
396.24.You may check the version of xorg video compatibility with the
driver. A number of bugs and work rounds are listed in the Nvidia
support forum.
regards,
Robert

Good morning,
So I managed to find an old nvidia card, and I got the nvidia driver
installed. I followed the notes here:
https://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Nvidia+Graphics
But to uninstall driver/graphics/nvidia, I also had to remove xorg-
video (meta package).
During the 'bootadm update-archive -R /mnt' step, it reported that the
driver was 32-bit and would be excluded.
After that, and a reboot, lightdm won't start.
Xorg works, running startx when logged in gives me a nice twm desktop.
Also, Xorg.0.log states that the nvidia driver 304.137 is actually in
use.
But lightdm -not so much.
From /var/log/lightdm/seat0-greeter.log :
** Message: 07:24:18.123: [Configuration] Reading file:
/etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf

Which is odd, since it used to work.
Using ldd on /usr/sbin/lightdm-gtk-greeter, it reports:
libEGL.so.1 => (file not found)
And chasing down the symbolic links, I get:
root@emu:/usr/lib/amd64# ls -l /usr/lib/64/libEGL.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 aug. 23 12:52

/usr/X11/lib/NVIDIA/amd64/libEGL.so.1: No such file or directory
Hmm..
So, what package is supposed to provide this?:
root@emu:/var/log/lightdm# pkg search -l libEGL.so.1
INDEX ACTION VALUE PACKAGE
basename link usr/lib/amd64/libEGL.so.1 pkg:
/service/opengl/ogl-select@0.5.11-2020.0.1.5
basename link usr/lib/GL/amd64/libEGL.so.1 pkg:

basename link usr/lib/GL/libEGL.so.1 pkg:
/service/opengl/ogl-select@0.5.11-2020.0.1.5
basename link usr/lib/libEGL.so.1 pkg:

basename link usr/lib/mesa/amd64/libEGL.so.1 pkg:
/x11/library/mesa@13.0.6-2020.0.1.7
basename link usr/lib/mesa/libEGL.so.1 pkg:
/x11/library/mesa@13.0.6-2020.0.1.7
Looking closer at these, it seems that only the files from "mesa" are
actual files. The others are just symlinks.
These are the 'real' ones:
root@emu:/usr# ls -l lib/mesa/libEGL.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 aug. 23 12:52
lib/mesa/libEGL.so.1 -> libEGL.so.1.0.0
root@emu:/usr# ls -l lib/mesa/amd64/libEGL*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 aug. 23 12:52
lib/mesa/amd64/libEGL.so -> libEGL.so.1.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 aug. 23 12:52
lib/mesa/amd64/libEGL.so.1 -> libEGL.so.1.0.0
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 224736 aug. 23 18:32
lib/mesa/amd64/libEGL.so.1.0.0
root@emu:/usr/lib/mesa/amd64# file libEGL.so.1.0.0
libEGL.so.1.0.0: ELF 64-bit LSB dynamic lib AMD64 Version 1,
dynamically linked, not stripped, no debugging information available
So it seems that the files are there, but the symlinks are incorrect.
It looks like the libs from the mesa package are never found.
What could be the cause of this and how do I fix it?
TIA,
/tony
