[opensuse-factory] SaX2 database, NVIDIA Quadro FX550, 3D and Xgl
I reinstalled the 10.2 alpha4 x86_64 with a PS/2 mouse on a Xeon 5160/NVIDIA Quadro FX550 Dell Precision 490 workstation. During installation, the correct WUXGA 1920x1200 resolution was set for the display Dell 2405FPW. But the Gnome panel and Nautilus crashed immediately and it wasn't possible to launch neihter the control center nor other applications. Therefore I couldn't verify with Dekstop effects if 3D was enabled to run Xgl later. KDE however worked more normal and better. Tested also a stable 10.1 installation. SaX2 showed only a "VESA frambuffer" with 1280x1024 resolution available. Trying next to follow the "Nvidia Installer Howto for Suse Linux users" which suggested an easy YaST2 installation of nvidia. But "sax2 -r" aftewards didn't load the nvidia driver. Even after compiling the latest NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-1.0-8774-pkg2.run driver file into the kernel, SaX2 still showed only a "VESA framebuffer", though now with correct resolution 1920x1200 for the diskplay. But 3D wasn't enabled or available in Desktop Effects which stopped trying Xgl. It looks like Quadro FX550 wasn't available in the database. Therefore I wonder if NVIDIA Quadro FX550 (3D) is supported in the SaX2 database in 10.1 and next in 10.2? Rgds, Terje J.
