Please help me with a major problem I've been having with the XSuSE
NVidia Xserver. I've just=20
downloaded it and tried it on a Dell with the AGP port of the STB Velocity
128 graphics card with 4 megs=20
and have had absolutly no success with this server.
I run the custom XF86Config program you make avail for download and it
seems to write the config just=20
fine. When I start X with the NVidia server configured to run, everything
goes black and the machine is then=20
locked for good until I reset it manually.
This is not a good thing, I have seen something extremely similar to
this with the Stealth 3D Xservers from=20
the X-consortium, but that was solve with a "nomem_access" option or
something very similar to that, in the=20
Device section.
Please reply with some advice at your earliest convience.=20
BTW, if this really works, I want to thank the guys at SuSE for such a
great X server. And I will probably be using SuSE LiNuX for our servers
here at work instead of FreeBSD.
Thanks again in advance for any help regarding this matter.
