Hello list! I get the following error whenever I try to use the 'nvidia' driver (the proprietary one) with X and firefox, say, when entering site that use java or flash etc.. Using the open source driver solves the problem, but I can not get direct rendering to work properly then. I also tried several versions of hte driver, plus re-compiled gecko.. no joy.
The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'. (Details: serial 84 error_code 8 request_code 149 minor_code 3) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) firefox-bin exited with non-zero status (1) would anyone know what causes this to happen? thanks, KArsten
