I fiddled around with it by hand after it didn't work. This way, 2D, but not 3D, works. If I let libGL.so.1 point to libGL.so.1.0.5.nvidia as well, kdm crashes on startup. Can someone check filesizes with this list? --snip-- [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/lib> ll *GL* *glx* ls: *glx*: No such file or directory -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 519926 Nov 2 18:44 libGL.a.debian lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Nov 6 19:30 libGL.so -> libGL.so.1.0.5.nvidia -rwxr-xr-x 2 root root 19 Nov 2 18:44 libGL.so.1 -> libGL.so.1.2.debian -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 184112 Oct 23 22:30 libGL.so.1.0.5.nvidia -rwxr-xr-x 2 root root 349804 Nov 2 18:44 libGL.so.1.2.debian lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Nov 5 13:44 libGLU.so -> libGLU.so.1.3 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Nov 2 08:39 libGLU.so.1 -> libGLU.so.1.3 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 78412 Oct 18 15:59 libGLU.so.1.1.030201 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 487348 Nov 2 18:44 libGLU.so.1.3 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Nov 6 19:22 libGLcore.so -> libGLcore.so.1.0.5.nvidia lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Nov 6 19:22 libGLcore.so.1 -> libGLcore.so.1.0.5.nvidia lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Nov 6 19:22 libGLcore.so.1.0.5 -> libGLcore.so.1.0.5.nvidia -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1499464 Oct 23 22:30 libGLcore.so.1.0.5.nvidia [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/lib> cd /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions> ll *GL* *glx* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1821046 Nov 2 18:44 libGLcore.a.debian -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 259916 Nov 2 18:44 libglx.a.debian lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Nov 6 19:32 libglx.so -> libglx.so.1.0.5.nvidia lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Nov 6 19:32 libglx.so.1.0.5 -> libglx.so.1.0.5.nvidia -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 450924 Oct 23 22:32 libglx.so.1.0.5.nvidia [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions> --snip-- > > Then, when starting X, the screen is black for ~8 secs with some blue > > flickers, before it switches to the right display mode (you can see an "old" > > image there for a short time).
