nvidia and no 3D after driver upgrade
Hi, after upgrading nvidia driver from v.1.0-7174 to 1.0-7667 3D stopped working. glxgears run at 15 fps and none of GL screensavers start. I cabn see that "nvidia" module is loaded, "glxinfo" says that direct rendering enabled and correctly identifies the video card and the driver. Also , sax2 says that 3D enabled. Originally, nvidia driver was installed through YOU. The upgrade was done first running "nvidia-installer --uninstall" and after that running Nvidia's installer (NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-1.0-7667-pkg2.run) since YOU did not fetch any new drivers. Looking at the nvidia-installer log I have not spotted errors, it says that "installed succesfully". What could be the problem? Any advise will be appreciated.

what does cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep NV say? see any clues there? or cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status ? B-) On Friday 24 June 2005 09:12 am, Dima wrote:

Hi,
the output of /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep NV looks ok,
I attached it. What I observed is that 2 running
setiathome demons processes (I have 2 CPUs) kill
nvidia 3D performance. Here is FPS from glxgears
before and after I stopped setiathome:
42 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8.400 FPS
51 frames in 5.0 seconds = 10.200 FPS
50 frames in 5.0 seconds = 10.000 FPS
47 frames in 5.0 seconds = 9.400 FPS
50 frames in 5.0 seconds = 10.000 FPS
51 frames in 5.0 seconds = 10.200 FPS
50 frames in 5.0 seconds = 10.000 FPS
22524 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4504.800 FPS
62582 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12516.400 FPS
62882 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12576.400 FPS
62826 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12565.200 FPS
62624 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12524.800 FPS
62841 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12568.200 FPS
62705 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12541.000 FPS
Is that how the Nvidia driver is supposed to behave?

see any clues there?
or

Also, sound does not work if I have 2 setiathome
processes running. A message (in KDE) pops up that CPU
is overloaded and artsd exiting.
Again, as with 3D problem - is it normal behaviour? Or
there is something wrong with my installation?
I thought that kernel takes care of timing/slicing
issues, so that processes does not get kicked out.

Try to run setiathome with -nice 19 to set low priority to setiathome. Gruss Carsten
Thatnks! That worked to some extent. Now glxgears
produce 300 fps instead of 10 fps.
