Hi Folks, Holiday Greetings to All. I have Nvidia working on my AMD XP2800 SUSE 9.2 PC thanks to Anders J. But I am stuck on my SMP SUSE 9.2 P-III 1GHZ 512MB PC. I have carefully played all the right incantations, nvoked the SAX spells and done much CLI stuff as well. No joy! Here is what I know: Doing sax2 -m 0=nvidia always ends back at the init 3 CLI. The relevent msg is "Failed to initiate nvidia kernel moduel". There are notes to look in the config and log files but they do not have any further details. This happens with an older Nvidia Quadro 32MB G2 AGP 1x card and a new Winfast Geforce 4000 128Mb AGP 8x card. Once that failure occurs the only way to get X up is to use pico on /etc/X11/XF86Config and change driver "nvidia" back to "nv". Now here is what I have found whilst noodling about. This 9.2 is up to date via YOU. However YOU's install nvidia routine never did complete correctly. And it never said it failed == SUSE feedback submitted. My guess is that it simply timed out on getting the NVIDIA-**********.run pkg, and then ended quietly. I manually got the nvidia 6629 install script and ran it after doing all the YOU updates inc the Kernel 2.6.8-24.5 updates which worked correctly, even sources according to YAST "Install & Remove" search and uname. Now if I do a lsmod there is no 'nvidia' mod loaded, so next I do 'modprobe nvidia' and it completes w/o errors and 'lsmod' now shows that the nvidia mod is loaded. Now I do 'startx' as my user and viola! the NVIDIA Logo comes up!!! and X starts; but alas as soon as KDE starts up the screen is corrupted, lots of bad colors and blurred things. I did do an appropriate 'make cloneconfig' and 'make depmod' but the sys replied that 'depmod is no longer needed. This nvidia card seems perfectly servicable using the 'nv' mod, just no 3D and it has the "not-so-nice look" that my 9.2 AMD XP2800 pc had before we got the nvidia module loaded. There is no correct entry in sax2 for this card (as in 0x0185 id per nvidia doc) It fails similarly no matter what card identifier I pick. Since nvidia tells us that there is only one "Integrated Driver Module" for all their cards I can only assume that the SAX 'card identifer' is only useful for other brand cards. Can anyone offer any help? I know this is the holidays, and I am in no particular hurry. It is running my seti clients which is its main job until I get the nvidia correct.
