Can not start x after installing nvidia 173.14.x drivers [SOLVED]

After installing nvidia-beta (version 173.14.05-5) I am unable to start x. I receive the errors:

(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device PCI:1:0:0.
(EE) NVIDIA(0):     Please see the COMMON PROBLEMS section in the README for
(EE) NVIDIA(0):     additional information.
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device!

I have tried the installer directly from nVidia itself and I receive the same results. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Re: Can not start x after installing nvidia 173.14.x drivers [SOLVED]

What model card are you using?
Did you check the readme to see if it is supported in this version?
You also installed nvidia-utils-beta?

I am almost certain that I have installed nvidia-utils-beta, but I can double check.

I use a GeForce 7900 GT. I will look over the list of supported and unsupported again to see if I can find my model anywhere. I may have over looked it the first time I checked.

Worth a try...

Re: Can not start x after installing nvidia 173.14.x drivers [SOLVED]

Yeah I have tried that multiple times unfortunately. I ran the command 'dmesg' and noticed this at the end:

NVRM: failed to copy vbios to system memory.
NVRM: RmInitAdapter failed! (0x30:0xffffffff:892)
NVRM: rm_init_adapter(0) failed

Apparently it is a known issue according to the nvidia-linux forums. I'm still waiting on some more information from there and will keep everyone here posted, unless someone here knows how to resolve this.

Don't know if everyone already knows, I came across this problem. It has been fixed in 173.14.09 which I downloaded from the nvidia website. Installation was as easy as running their .run script.

I did a little more research and the nvidia site contains a "Common Problems" section that may have a solution:
http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/L … er-08.html
I will try this and follow up here.

I also had this problem when upgrading to v173... nothing seems to work for me other than downgrading to nvidia 169.12-4 and nvidia-utils 169.12-1.
Luckily I found them in the pacman cache.

I have upgraded to an eGeForce 8800 GTS video card and all is well now, but thanks to all for the suggestions and info.
