sean ... attached is an email i posted to the list awhile back on the procedure i used to get X to work on my system (AMD 800mhz/ASUS A7V mobo/ASUS7700 GF2). --me On Wed, 27 Sep 2000, Sean McGrath wrote:
I have a Dell Precision 420 with duel P3 933 and 512megs of RDRAM, Hercules Prophet 2 Geforce2 GTS (64 meg card).
Using Suse 7.0 hot off the presses, XF86 4.0.1 and the 0.9.5 nvidia driver. Have installed the nvidia kernel and GLX module, but when I startx I get
'Fatal server error: Caught signal 11. Aborting...'
This is under the standard uniprocessor kernel that comes with Suse 7.
I tried compiling a new kernel for SMP, but then I get a nvidia kernel error stating that the nvidia driver is compiled for a uniprocessor system (doh!)
Any advice here? I am unable to use X at all unless I use the framebuffer device (ugh!)
