[opensuse] nvidia display proble in 11.3
Hi everyone I just upgraded from 11.2 to 11.3. Now the maximum resolution I can get is 1280 x 960 and it is slow with poor quality. Before I had 1440 x 900 with crisp fast graphics. I've tried nomodeset on the kernel line as per the release instructions. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? nvidia 6100.

It tried this but it won't compile. It says the kenel sources are built wrong y OWTTE. This is a DVD upgrade, 11.2 to 11.3. Then I chose 'failsafe at the command line and it went to to 1440 x 900 but sill not as good as it was in 11.2 Thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

the nvidia drivers require kernel{your-flavour}-devel and maybe kernel-source installed to compile the new kernel. -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Download the nvdia driver from its site. Also you need to install kernel-source, gcc and make. If you have nouveau installed, uninstall xorg-x11-driver-video-nouveau and in YaST - System - etc/sysconfig Editor set System - Kernel - NO_KMS_IN_INITRD to yes. Reboot it to runlevel 3 and try to build the nvidia driver.

TIA Hi After a lot of fighting with a similar problem, my screen referrer 1440x900, but Xorg went to 1440x960 all the time. I put this line in my .bashrc file xrandr --output default --mode 1440x900 --preferred
btw running 11.3 updated from 11.2 with Nvidia 256.35 from nvidia.com -- greeting Joel Young -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
