[XFree86] Linux 8.0 server GUI crash

2003-07-23 Thread Dave . Fragiacomo

Attached are my log files which were generated from my red Hat Linux 8.0 system.  The system does boot, but only in a text mode display.  The GUI does not load correctly.  The display I'm using is an HP TFT5600 RKM device1U rack mounted keyboard, mouse and LCD display.  Attached are the two current log files from the crash.  Please respond.

  For the GeForce4 Ti you'll either want to use NVIDIA's binary 
Linux drivers, which will work with your current XFree86 version,
or you'll want to upgrade to XFree86 4.3 and use the nv driver.
With the nv driver in XFree86 4.3 you may need to specify
  Option CrtcNumber 1
if it is displaying a black screen.  The driver has a difficult
time figuring out which head to use when a flat panel is attached,
and the DVI connector is frequently on connector 1 rather than 0.

Mark,

I thought that I would mention that yesterday I upgraded my RH9 to XFree86
4.3 and the NVIDIA driver failed.  RH offered to reconfigure the driver to
nv and everything worked.

XFree86.log error
[GLX]:Failed to add GLX extension(NVIDIA XFree86 driver not found)

I've been watching the list to see how many people might have experienced
similar problems.


Thanks.
Dwaine

   Any time you change your kernel NVIDIA's drivers need to get
reinstalled.  

 
 XFree86.log error
 [GLX]:Failed to add GLX extension(NVIDIA XFree86 driver not found)

   That's because the NVIDIA drivers weren't uninstalled so it's
still trying to use NVIDIA's GLX module.  Removing NVIDIA's
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.so will allow the 
Mesa GLX module to get used.
