Hi,
I have a problem with my nvidia card under ubuntu to be recognized in
the kernel. I have compiled my own kernel, 2.6.22.2 and installed the
drivers from the nvidia-site by doing sudo sh
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run. When I try to open gdm (startx), I
receive the errors
(II) NVIDIA(0): Support for GLX with the Damage and Composite X
extensions is
(II) NVIDIA(0): enabled.
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module!
(EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting ***
(II) UnloadModule: "nvidia"
(II) UnloadModule: "ramdac"
(II) UnloadModule: "wfb"
(II) UnloadModule: "fb"
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
Fatal server error:
no screens found
and when I do modprobe nvidia, I receive error
fatal error running install command for nvidia
When I change the video driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf from nvidia in nv,
gdm can be loaded and my X works, but it is not the nvidia driver which
is loaded. Anybody has a solution ? I tried already to google around,
and tried to install and desinstall the nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-new
from the ubuntu but this didnt work. Anybody has solution ? I use Ubuntu
feisty 7.04
thx and greetz,
JOhan
