Hi, All. We have several SL5 systems using the proprietary nvidia driver from sl-contrib. We did not have any trouble with these systems until we tried to view video in EVO (ViEVO). We have no problem using EVO with the latest 260.19.29 drivers downloaded and installed from nvidia.com. However, we are unable to view video when using nvidia-x11-drv from sl-contrib or nvidia-graphics260.19.21 from atrpms. In all cases, xorg.conf is essentially unchanged.
Please see below for example output from unsuccessful and successful attempts at running ViEVO. Any suggestions for fixing this using the sl-contrib (or atrpms) drivers would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Devin Here is the output from attempting to run ViEVO while using nvidia-x11-drv from sl-contrib: ------ [da...@lnx226 ~]% rpm -qa |grep -i nvidia nvidia-x11-drv-195.36.24-1.0.x86_64 nvidia-x11-drv-32bit-195.36.24-1.0.x86_64 [da...@lnx226 ~]% uname -a Linux lnx226.lns.cornell.edu 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Nov 9 12:46:16 EST 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [da...@lnx226 ViEVO]% ./ViEVO 127.0.0.1/2222:2224 Settings error: .preferences.xml: cannot open file Got Doublebuffered Visual! glX-Version 1.4 Sorry, no Direct Rendering possible!
