[expert] Problems with nvidia acceleration!

2003-08-28 Thread Magnus Wirström
Hi everyone!

Before i had glx and mesa working fine and i could use it with kde's screen savers 
that uses glx. Lately i have noticed that mesa does not work any more. I have checked 
my configuration and it seems to be correct. I have also reinstalled the nvidia 
driver. I am using 9.1 with all updates installed. I have also updated my kernel to 
the latest. Anyone have an idea what could be wrong?

Magnus.

1) The Nvidia driver replaces the Mesa libraries with its own GLX version.

2) If you updated the kernel, you must reinstall the Nvidia drivers after 
that, to create the module that will work with that kernel. To do this, 
you will need to install the corresponding kernel-source RPM first.

3) Fix the date on your system (see attribution line above).

HTH!
