Dear all,
I thought to be worth posting this message for those who experience
problems with dual core+quadro FX.
It seems that only recently kernel and compatible driver became available.
We succeeded installing PyMOL in a AMD64 X2+Quadro FX1300+Fedora5.
After installing Fedora 5 (which seems to recognize FX1300 automatically
but without working properly),
we followed a recipe (2-May-2006) from http://www.fedorafaq.org/
("Problems and Their Solutions, Q3")
We used "yum install kmod-nvidia" ("yum install kmod-nvidia-smp"
did not work)
Kernel 2.6.16-1.2122_FC5 was installed by this last command line.
(21-May-2006 -
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/5/i386/)
After that, we have followed the rest of the recipe and changed
/etc/X11/xorg.conf (Driver "nvidia")
PyMOL 0.99 runs beautifully although stereo mode was not tested yet.
Kind regards,
Ricardo Aparicio
