https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=368165 Summary: graphics driver configuration repair Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: X11 3rd Party Driver AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: Markus.Elfring@web.de QAContact: sndirsch@novell.com Found By: --- I guess that the YaST online update for software components like "nvidia-gfxG01-kmp-default 169.12_2.6.22.17_0.1-0.1" and "x11-video-nvidiaG01 169.12-0.1" that I installed on 2008-03-04 broke my working system. Symptoms: 1. The notice "Your X server is using the RandR extension at version 1.2 or greater which doesn't have any configuration yet" is shown in the KDE control centre for the display. 2. Error message "SaX2 could not provide the activation of the 3D subsystem because 3D might not be supported by the graphics card." 3. Some messages from the command "glxinfo": Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual 4. I hear a loud noise from my computer box. Is the graphics fan constantly turning at full speed? Which software version will fix this all? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

(II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules//extensions/libglx.so (II) Module glx: vendor="NVIDIA Corporation" compiled for 4.0.2, module version = 1.0.0 Module class: X.Org Server Extension ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.1 (II) NVIDIA GLX Module 169.12 Thu Feb 14 18:34:02 PST 2008
Wrong location (no idea where this comes from). It should be used this one instead: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/updates/extensions/libglx.so
(II) LoadModule: "nvidia" (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules//drivers/nvidia_drv.so (II) Module nv: vendor="X.Org Foundation" compiled for 7.2.0, module version = 2.1.3 Module class: X.Org Video Driver ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 1.2
This is the wrong driver. It's the nvidia dummy module, which is just the nv driver. It should be used this one instead /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/updates/drivers/nvidia_drv.so ==> messed up system, which you didn't notice before the update for some reason. Please run nvidia-installer --uninstall rpm -e x11-video-nvidiaG01 --noscripts Then reinstall the x11-video-nvidiaG01 package. Let me know if this helps. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

But the notice "Your X server is using the RandR extension at version 1.2 or greater which doesn't have any configuration yet." remains in the KDE control centre. This is a limitation in the KDE control center, which needs to be handled seperately. I hope that support for RANDR 1.2 will be added to openSUSE 11.0.
Closing as FIXED. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
