Hi, I probably do some silly mistake, but I can't manage it to work. I have NVIDIA GeForce GT630M (2 GB memory, 96 CUDA cores) and I followed http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA_drivers#The_repository_way to install original drivers to be able to use full power of the chip. $ lspci | grep VGA 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF108 [GeForce GT 630M] (rev a1) I installed the x11-video-nvidiaG02 package and run as root nvidia-xconfig, but after reboot X doesn't start.

Now I'm using xorg-x11-driver-video-nouveau. Thank You in advance, Vojtěch

Hi Vojtech, I just went through the graphicscard-hell myself (try getting an NVidia AND an ATI card working in one machine ; ) There's a few things you can do in this stage... the reason why the xserver fails is logged in /var/log/Xorg.0.log if you want to have a quicker way to check the xorg.conf file, you can log into your machine from another one (ssh, telnet) and run startx. one thing to also check is, did you run nvidia-xconfig from the command line greets Arno Beekman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
