Re: [opensuse] kde used nvidia drivers? [Sorta SOLVED]
* Roger Oberholtzer (roger@xxxxxx) [20110506 13:59]:

I wonder why I get this in my X log when using the RADEONHD driver:

[ 32631.457] (II) Initializing built-in extension DAMAGE
[ 32631.460] (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X
driver not found)

You only get that on a broken system!

1) What does 'rpm -qf /usr/lib/libGL.so.1' say?
2) What does 'objdump -p /usr/lib/libGL.so.1| fgrep NEEDED' say?
3) Remove any libGL* below /usr/X11R6/lib

The system continues OK. But this seems an odd thing to say.

That only happens when the system tries to load the wrong GLX extension.
I'd remove any nvidia related package and, if present, the proprietary ATI
driver. After that, reinstall the Mesa packages. This should give you
software GL only. Now install the binary-only ATI driver via rpm and it
should run without problems.
