NVIDIA RIva TNT + NVIDIA drivers == graphic failure

Kin · 2005-02-04 15:59:14

Hi,

just wanted to install the latest nvidia drivers. So I did a pacman -S nvidia. Everything went ok.

I added nvidia to the driver section in xorg.conf and removed load glx and load dri.

X starts, I can see the nvidia logo.

I tried running xfce4 but unfortunately graphic failures appeared (btw. how can i shoot pcitures form the screen within XFCE ? )
KDE also has graphic failures.

1. The card is ok, thereś no hardware defect.
2. xorg with nv drivers is running great.

I'm asking myself whether this could be the problem like it is mentioned in the README of the nvidia drivers:

ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux … README.txt

(app-h) APPENDIX H: TNT SPECIFIC ISSUES
__________________________________________________________________________

Most issues pertaining to SGRAM/SDRAM TNT cards should be resolved.
There is the rare chance, however, that your video card has the wrong
BIOS installed, and that this driver will continue to fail for you.

If this driver fails for you, do the following:

o watch your monitor as the system boots. The very first, brief screen
will identify the type of video memory your card has. This will be
either SGRAM or SDRAM.

o edit the file "os-registry.c" from the kernel module sources. Look
for the variable "NVreg_VideoMemoryTypeOverride". Set the value of
the variable to the type of memory you have (numerically, see the
line just above it).

o since we do not normally use this variable, change the "#if 0" that is
about 10 lines above the variable to "#if 1".

o rebuild and reinstall the new driver ("make")

What do you say. Could this be the problem ?

sounds like they haven't fixed the inoperability of the the nvidia drivers and the 2.6.x kernels. you will have to seek out the old driver package somewhere or go to the nvidia sight and download the older drivers.

when they said "watch your screen", they were referring to the agp boot screen that shows up before your bios. you might have to reboot several times before you find out whether it says SDRAM or SGRAM somewhere.
