No, not a simple modload. When I say "attach", then I mean something like add_drv or update_drv. Also, what you tried above looks wrong, because for modload to work you must always specify a path to the object you want to load into kernel space, it doesn't look in a default search path if it can find something with that name. > But I can't load other drivers like nv or vgatext.

I can't find anything about that. $ ls -al /lib/opengl/ogl_selectnvidia_vendor_select total 22 drwxr-xr-x 2 root bin 4 Feb 2 03:51 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root bin 3 Jan 29 17:19 .. -rwxr-xr-x 1 root bin 3145 Feb 1 11:06 mesa_vendor_select -rwxr-xr-x 1 root bin 3177 Feb 1 11:06 nvidia_vendor_select As a user or role with enough authorization go there, run them with "ksh93 -x ./nvidia_vendor_select" and look if something goes wrong. In that case, post the output. See the other nvidia related problem which another user wrote about yesterday, msg. includes response: http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/xwin-discuss/2009-March/003233.html p.s. This topic is xwin-discuss relevant, on that list the chances are higher that some "right" person sees your question and can help you. That's why I had forwarded your email of yesterday to xwin-discuss. I put it into CC again. %martin _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
