People,
I had an nvidia GeForce 8400 that worked perfectly in this opensuse 11.1 box. However, the video card failed and was replaced by an GeForce 9400 GT, which seems not to work with opensuse 11.1's X server (?!). sax2 detects the new card as VESA Framebuffer and gives me 1280x1024 resolution only (should be 1680x1050) and veeeeery slow graphics. If I force it to generate a xorg.conf file which loads the appropriate driver ("sax2 -r -m 0=nvidia" or "sax2 -r -m 0=nv"), X aborts while loading. The "nvidia" driver was installed from nvidia's opensuse repository (http://download.nvidia.com/opensuse/11.1). I have installed Fedora 11 in this machine to test the card and it works perfectly well with Fedora, but I'd rather stay with opensuse. Is there a way to make this card work with opensuse? I have the following packages installed: kernel-pae-2.6.27.25-0.1.1 kernel-pae-base-2.6.27.25-0.1.1 kernel-pae-extra-2.6.27.25-0.1.1 xorg-x11-7.4-8.19.1 xorg-x11-server-7.4-17.6.1 xorg-x11-driver-video-7.4-19.8.2 nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-pae-185.18.14_2.6.27.23_0.1-2.2
Thanks,
Marcelo
I think that your problem is in nvidia drivers which is builded again another kernel version...youyr pae is 2.6.27.25-0.1.1 but you nvidia drivers is again 2.6.27.23-0.1. So try change kernel version or nvidia driver version. -- Josef Reidinger YaST team maintainer of perl-Bootloader, YaST2-Repair, webyast modules language and time -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
