Bug #855541 submitted.

The module gets loaded. # lsmod|grep nvidia nvidia 10609843 0

I also added this to /etc/X11/xorg.conf but it still fails the same way:- Section "ServerFlags" Option "IgnoreABI" "true" EndSection

You have reinstalled the nvidia driver after the xorg-x11-server upgrade?

Because the propietary video drivers replaces some xorg libraries, any time You upgrade xorg, You must to reinstall the propietary video drivers.

Cheers, Juan

That's the rub, I always do that and it was successful but it complains of an incompatible API. The previous xorg-x11-server was OK. Is it available anywhere and is it likely not to cause problems? Response in the bug from Stefan Dirch ----------------------------------------------------- NVIDIA is going to work on the new ABI, once xorg-server 1.15.0 has been released. X11:XOrg/openSUSE:Factory can contain bleeding edge packages. Please don't use it for regular use and don't report bugs as Crit Sit. This is crazy. Regards Sid -- Sid Boyce ...

Hi Cristian,

Can you please watch your language? It's just a driver - and even one that many feel important for their daily work. Fine for you that you don't need it, but stop insulting the intelligence of people in need of proprietary drivers.

Greetings, Stephan

but stop insulting the intelligence of people in need of proprietary drivers. I have said absolutely nothing about the intelligence of people using proprietary drivers, nice straw-men argument. What I am attacking is the known poor quality and fragility of the driver in question.

They are always behind the curve which causes users some difficulties. The longstanding binary blob issue is pain in the tail forever chasing kernel API changes and now an Xorg ABI incompatibility. I'll forget about it and seek a fix for the openGL/nouveau problem that causes cuSDR64 to fail with "cuSDR64 BETA requires OpenGL v2.0 or later to run" There isn't a problem running the application on Kubuntu versions up to 13.10.

I'd gladly switch exclusively to nouveau which I have done on 2 systems. I'll try to get a fix to the GL problem based on nouveau and when it's OK I'll ditch NVidia drivers.

The only major problem I had with nouveau was the really noise fan that sounded like a having a car engine running in the room :-D , kernel 3.13rc has made this issue go away. I missed that problem and I'm currently running 13.3-rc4. Regards Sid.
