Hi all,
I just got a GeForce4 MX 4000 and I'm having trouble getting it working with Xorg 6.8.0-r4. Ideally I'd like to have it only connected to my TV, and not have a monitor or keyboard.
When I start X using the 'nvidia' driver (nvidia-glx 1.0.6629-r1) my screen initialises correctly, and I get a mouse pointer appearing as well. I see a white line in the top left corner of the screen, going right about 200px. If I move the mouse up towards the line the mouse turns into resize / move pointers depending on where it is. All programs seem to load, I get no errors in .gnomerc-errors, and all processes seem to be running. If I connect using VNC (either the "vnc" extension or x0vncserver) I see exactly the same as on the screen.
If I change the driver from 'nvidia' to 'vesa' everything works fine, except I obviously can't configure TV and it's slow.
lspci -v output for my card:
0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX 4000 AGP 8x] (rev c1) (prog-if 00 [VGA])
Flags: bus master, 66Mhz, medium devsel, latency 248, IRQ 201
Memory at dc000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
Memory at d0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M]
Capabilities: [60] Power Management version 2
Capabilities: [44] AGP version 3.0
Every time I start X using the nvidia driver the kernel says: agpgart: Found an AGP 2.0 compliant device at 0000:00:00.0. agpgart: Putting AGP V2 device at 0000:00:00.0 into 4x mode agpgart: Putting AGP V2 device at 0000:01:00.0 into 4x mode
Of course, I've merged and loaded nvidia-kernel-1.0.6629-r1, and it seems to load fine.
My xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log (-logverbose 5) are posted online: http://www.bootc.net/xorg/
I hope someone has an idea or two!
Many thanks, Chris
