NVidia drivers, X troubles (Debian 3, linux 2.4.18)
Hi. I'm an end user with delusions of modest competence. I had debian 3.0 with linux 2.4.18 kernel set up on a hard disk from an old machine, and recently moved it over to a new machine: Shuttle XPC SN45G Processor: AMD Athlon XP 2500, 1.87GHz, 333MHz FSB Mainboard/Chipset: FN45, NVidia nforce2 ultra 400 ATX RAM 1GB (2x512MB 184pin DIMM, DDR 333, PC2700) Primary Master (hda, root on hda1): 2GB hd Primary Slave: Samsung ATAPI 20x CDROM Secondary Master (hdc, home on hdc1): 8GB hd one PCI slot: Creative 56k v.92 PCI modem (controllerless) one AGP slot: ASUS GeForce4 MX440 8x AGP, 64MB onboard LAN, Firewire, USB This thing is pretty obviously designed for windows, but I seem to have gotten Debian back up and running in a minimally usable state, although at present the kernel is compiled with the processor type set to 486 instead of Athlon/K7 (having trouble with modules, especially the hcfpci modules for the winmodem, when I recompile and/or simply insert the K7 image with apt-get). Here is my main problem: I've downloaded and installed the NVidia drivers/modules for the Asus video card I have in the AGP slot, but when I reconfigure xserver-xfree86, choose the nvidia driver then startx, I get a EE: no device found error. When I do lspci -vvn I get the following entry for (what I think?) is the video card: 03:00.0 Class 0300: 10de:0181 (rev a2) Subsystem: 1043:8063 Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop+ ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66Mhz+ UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium TAbort- TAbort- MAbort- SERR- PERR- Latency: 5 min, 1 max, 32 set Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 10 Region 0: Memory at de00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M] Region 1: Memory at d000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M] Expansion ROM at unassigned [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [60] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- AuxPwr- DSI- D1- D2- PME- Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME- Capabilities: [44] AGP version 3.0 Status: RQ=31 SBA+ 64bit- FW+ Rate=21 Command: RQ=0 SBA- AGP- 64bit- FW- Rate= but the first item returned by lspci also mentions AGP, but with I/O- rather than +.

nvidia and X with 2.4.19
I just recently tried to get XFree86 4.1 working with the newest nVidia drivers (1.0-3123). I'm running a custom 2.4.19 kernel and compiled the nVidia kernel drivers against that. Seemed to work fine and the NVdriver modules installed ok (after some troubleshooting since I keep my kernel source elsewhere than /usr/src). Got the rpm package for the nVidia GLX driver and installed that with alien. X starts fine now (at first run it COMPLETELY crashed... couldn't even do C-M-Bksp... found out later that was because I needed to restart the system first when changing from non AGP drivers to AGP drivers). Anyhow, the skinny is that 2-D works fine but 3-D (in quake 3 at least) doesn't do texturing (I assume) correctly at all. I get a strange sci-fi like image of everything. /var/log/XFree86.0.log doesn't show any errors that would give any insight, and the nVidia FAQ/Troubleshoot doesn't specifically help either. Any suggestions? Also, X takes a lot longer to start up now. - jackp __ Do you Yahoo!?

Re: nvidia and X with 2.4.19
Why install the RPM package for the nVidia GLX driver and not get the nvidia-glx-src package and build it along with the nvidia-kernel-src package for the kernel patch... That is what I have working here on my AMD 1Ghz Athalon at work with a nVidia GeForce2 MX card... I haven't upgraded the kernel yet as I'm preparing to do a re-install because of some harddrive issues but I currently have nvidia-glx-src and nvidia-kernel-src 1.0.2960-1 compiled against a custom 2.4.18 kernel with EVMS and VLAN patches applied... This is working wit XFree86 4.1.0 as well... I haven't install'd any of the 4.2 pre-release packages on this machine...

nVidia and X problems
I am using an AGP nVidia GeForce2 MX video card and am experiencing video problems. The screen, even in text mode, shows lots of flickering, horizontal lines. The monitor is a 1600 x 1200 19 LCD; I can plug it into another machine and the image is beautiful, so I don't think the problem is in the monitor. I have two new machines which each have this card, and both show this behaviour, so I don't think the problem is in the video card. I suspect it is a driver problem.

Re: nvidia + GL = X crash
Bostjan, What nVIDIA card are you using? Is it the Riva TNT2 M64? Make sure you are not loading the XF4 DRI module. If X is crashing, it sounds like an issue with the nNVIDIA driver. Make sure you are loading the kernel driver (which is actually a module) before starting X, i.e, check /etc/modules for NVdriver (or modprobe NVdriver). If you have this, then I suggest reading the readme files, and re-compiling the nVIDIA kernel driver. Mine involved changing a line that said #if 0 to #if 1. In my X setup, I commented out GLcore and dri in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. I have also attached a shell script (thanks #nvidia on openprojects.net) which will check your OpenGL libs setup to verify that you do not have any unwanted files laying around. And to note, here's how your libs should look: /usr/lib/libGL.so - /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.0.5 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 - libGL.so.1.0.5 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.0.5 /usr/lib/libGLU.so - libGLU.so.1.3 /usr/lib/libGLU.so.1 - libGLU.so.1.3 /usr/lib/libGLU.so.1.3 /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1 - libGLcore.so.1.0.5 /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1.0.5 To verify this setup, once you have the NVdriver loaded and working, run glxinfo. If it crashes, then you need to re-evaluate your libs setup. Just for your information, I use woody, so I'm not sure what the effect of this will be on potato.

Re: nvidia + GL = X crash
Problems with an NVidia card and you didn't tell me? First of all, have you looked through the previous posts on this forum for any answers? Have you tryed them all? Second, it really, really, really sounds to me like you didn't specify which module to use. As root run 'lsmod' and make sure that the NVdriver module is loaded. Next, open up your config file. It's probably /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. Make sure that its not loading the nv driver and is instead loading the nvidia driver. I believe that normal mesa doesn't work with the nvidia driver and causes it to crash when ever you try to startx(or whatever you do.) Using the nv driver it(mesa) works just fine and dandy. Mesa working (from what I understand) is not a good thing with the nvidia driver. Heck, mesa shouldn't even be on your machine (unless you can define all the time which GL driver to use.) If the above fails, check out my giant list of install/debug instructions to a guy with the alias of dude. It should be in the news letter archive (its pretty recent so you shouldn't have to look too hard.)

nVidia geForce + X == error?
Is there an X server for geForce cards (specifically Asus V.6600)? Probing during Debian install did not detect a compatible card, it said... Jeroen T. Wenting [EMAIL PROTECTED] Murphy was wrong, things that can't go wrong will anyway

Is there an X server for geForce cards (specifically Asus V.6600)? Probing during Debian install did not detect a compatible card, it said... You may compile X 4.0.1 from source and nistall driver from nVidia (www.nvidia.com). It will give you the full power of hardware acceleration. -- Alexey Vyskubov (at home) Hi! I'm a .signature virus!

looking for Nvidia GeForce X server
Hi Everybody! I look for an X server to Geforce Chipset. Nvidia says: under construction Can somebody help me, to find an useful X server? ( I can't enjoy the 320X200 resolution... :-/ ) Thanks! Tamás
Re: looking for Nvidia GeForce X server
upgrading to XF86 3.3.6 should do it .. see www.debian.org/~vincent now getting 3D acceleration under geforce may be a different story. you could try the drivers on this page too, 3D acceleration binaries for geforce and other riva cards http://www.nvidia.com/Marketing/Developer/OpenDrvDwn.nsf/linux?OpenViewStart=1Count=500Expand=1#1 nate On Wed, 2 Feb 2000, [iso-8859-1] Kov?cs Tam?s wrote: tamas.
