Sure,...We'll see how good my memory is cause I hacked at it for awhile,...
First thing was that in my case, /etc/X11/XF86config (which is what my
xorg.conf file links to) wasn't loading glx properly. My defaul install had
this long line into the X11 extensions directory and this library didn't work
with the freshly installed nvidia drivers. the line should simply be;
load "glx"
I think you also need to get rid of the
Load "dri"
Load "GLcore"
also make sure you are using
Driver "nvidia" in the device section in the xorg.conf (XF86config in my case)
You also need to move two files which the nVidia installer does not place
proberly (though there is a flag I saw documented somewhere in my travels
that apparently does this for you) but these files;
(this is my path based on where I ran my installer from)
/home/packages/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6629-pkg1/usr/X11R6/lib/libXvMCNVIDIA.a
/home/packages/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6629-pkg1/usr/X11R6/lib/libXvMCNVIDIA.so.1.0.6629
need to be copied into the /usr/X11R6/lib/ directory
Once that was done I edited the settings.pro file (per Brad, thank you very
much) to enable XvMC before compiling myth. You have to compile myth from
source to get this functionality.
And VIOLA! It worked for me.
Hope that helps,..
