I installed the 64 bits version of 13.1 Beta1 in a Compaq Presario V3500, which has the Nvidia Go 7150 video chip, and with the nouveau driver was near impossible to read the text on the screen because the horizontal and vertical lines on the screen.
To install the Nvidia propietary driver,I installed gcc, make, the kernel-devel packages and source.
When I try to install the latest driver for the Nvidia Go 7150 video chip, version 304.88, in any try I got the message that the installer don't find the version.h file in the kernel sources, and couldn't complete the installation of the video driver.
The installer has blacklisted the nouveau driver, and I created a new initrd, and then the screen goes readable, but without ·3D acceleration. I tried to find what driver is using lsmod,and I find a driver named "video".
How can I make to install the propietary video driver, because the nouveau driver is useless?
Thanks
Hi Juan,
Use the attached patch and apply it the downloaded NVIDIA*run driver that works with your graphics card. You must download the driver from the nVidia website.
Thank You! This is the same patch than for the 325.08 driver ? Because I applied it with success, but the problem to find the version.h file continued with the modified installer. I downloaded the driver from: http://la.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-amd64-304.88-driver-la.html Thanks, juan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
