I think I had a problem with glx in the beginning and fixed it. My problem was that in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions there was the libglx.a (part of xorg) and X was finding that instead of the nvidia/libglx.so so I: #cd /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/ #mv libglx.a xlibglx.a #ln -s nvidia-graphics-1.0-7174/libglx.so.1.0.7174 libglx.so #telinit 3; telinit 5 #grep -i glx /var/log/Xorg.o.log (II) LoadModule: "glx" (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.so (II) Module glx: vendor="NVIDIA Corporation" (II) Loading extension GLX (II) Loading extension NV-GLX (II) Initializing extension GLX I just installed 6629 via apt-get and now I have my 1080i modeline working, thanks. I changed my ln -s line above to: ln -s nvidia/libglx.so libglx.so that way it will still work if I ever change nvidia drivers again. > > I wish I knew how.
