I know.... I know... and other people on this list have 64 bit nvidia working But after three days, two identical fresh installs were performed, the 32 bit works and 64 bit does not. And this is not some newbie issue - and I have 25 years experience as an IT processional (including lots of testing) and 9 years with suse - meaning IT IS NOT ME :) My hardware is: AMD +6000 Galaxy 7600GT (PCIE) Asrock ALiveXFire-esata2/A/ASR 4gb 800 ram Thanks, Pieter On 08/10/2007, Fred A.

Hi all,

Well I have spent a long time on this but at least I know I am not crazy.

I previously reported problems with 10.3 x64 nvidia driver installation (7600gt). Basically whatever I did, it did not work - x server crashes after installation.

Just to prove I was not crazy (and it was not a hardware fault) I have just repeated the installation for 10.3 32 bit. I did exactly the same installation steps (and I mean exactly.)

And guess what? IT WORKS!!!! I have a working x server (glxgears is giving me thousands of FPS)

So for my hardware setup the 64 bit nvidia driver installation DOES NOT WORK...

but of course I want both 3d and 64 bit...

'Doesn't make sense. I have a GeForce 8700GT and the 64-bit driver runs perfectly!

Fred
