Hi all.
I have just bought my new nvidia fx 5200, 128 MB ddr 8x agp video card. And i have downloaded the drivers form nvidia home page. I installed it, an configured as the README says i have to do. But, running on gentoo 1.4, kde 3.2.1, kernel 2.4.25, i cannot run my opengl screensaver. I thougth that with this card, it has to work, but, sometimes even hangs the system, other, it restarts my XFree86.
Can you help me ?
Thanks.
hi, have you use emerge for install it ? something like : emerge -av nvidia-kernel nvidia-glx then opengl-update nvidia
can you give the lsmod / XF86Config / glxinfo / /var/log/XFree86.0.log and /etc/XF86Config and dmesg ?
I think some could help you with this ...
an other thing is that i think you sould use the agpgart from nvidia
as only 2.6 kernel supports agp 8x (unless a backport have been done) or chage to kernel 2.6 (emerge applies the right patches to the nvidia drivers for 2.6 kernel)
you can also search on bugs.gentoo.org ...
