Hello, I believe I have been asking the wrong questions. I think I need to remove my gl things and my 2313/2314 GLX/kernels. I am pretty sure I now have the correct commands to install these if I can get back to a "clean" system first. Hopefully one of you guru's can tell me how to do this without reinstalling Linux.
I have the i586 linux kernel, single processor. I downloaded 2313/14 source rpms and told it to upgrade instead of install (I hadn't installed any before on this system/linux install). I read on nVidia's site/pdf that upgrading the GLX causes some things to be mistakenly removed. So when I put the line to load the glx module into my xf86config-4 file my nVidia splash screen went away. Without this line I have the splash, but neither way has gl/3d support for me (I screwed up!). I also screwed something up because it gave me this line: Wrote: /usr/src/RPM/RPMS/i686/NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-2313.i686.rpm somewhere along, I must have followed the wrong directions in more ways than one because I haven't tried to recompile my linux kernel with the i686 optimizations, it is just the regularly installed i586 version! Looking to fix this SOON! Thanks for your help and patience, Wes Gregg [EMAIL PROTECTED] Registered Linux User # 252649
