NVidia in Breezy seems VERY slow. I have setup nvidia successfully
countless times on Linux boxes.
I did not use the commercial driver.
Loaded nvidia-common, nvidia-glx linux-restriced-modules-2.6..12-8-k7
(matches my kernel; discovered by uname -r),
linux-restricted-modules-common.
In my /etc/X11/xorg.conf, I commented out GLcore and dri.
Video card section of my xorg.conf looks like:
Section "Device"
Identifier "NVIDIA Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX 4000 AGP 8x]"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Option "NoLogo" "true"
Option "NvAgp" "1"
EndSection
I added the last option after searching around ubuntuforums and the net
in an attempt to speed it up a bit, but I saw no noticeable change.
glxgears runs, but very slow. How slow, I don't know because after two
minutes I still haven't gotten a framerate in the terminal that I
started glxgears from.
glxinfo returns:
