SuSE 8.0 hangs! SaX2, Nvdia GeForce2 MX, GLX, logout, black console
Hi! I installed (?) SuSE 8.0 Pro in a DELL Dimension 8200 with monitor 1702FP using NVIDIA GeForce2 MX graphics card. I never could run sax2. System hangs after detecting the hardware and asking me whether to enable 3d or not irrespective of my answer (yes or no). System hangs always when I change to console mode (Ctrl+Alt+F1) or when I logout. Resolution of fonts are horrible and I couldn't find any better font in the list! I tried installing NVIDIA drivers using YOU, directly after downloading from nvidia.com, etc. Files are all at proper places but when I include Load "glx" log file contains an error. When I use the Device option "NvAgp" "1" system hangs with Load "glx" but I could startx only without Load "glx". I tried to make install but couldn't find the command "make" anywhere in SuSE 8.0??!! I am attaching XF86Config, XFree86.0.log and SaX.log files. Please help me. (SuSE system support doesn't seem to have any answers, they never answered!)

I have similar problems - I had expected the YOU download to install the drivers fairly painlessly, but it didn't, so I'm just using 2D for the moment.
"glx". I tried to make install but couldn't find the command "make" anywhere in SuSE 8.0??!!
Surprisingly, the default install of SuSE 8.0 doesn't seem to install ANY of the packages required to compile sources - ie, you need to install make, autoconf, gcc, etc. I find this most peculiar - if this had been the case 3 years ago when I started using SuSE it would have stumped me completely.

I have old box (Atlon 750) and very old monitor Gatwey 17 (unkhow. :). Therevore my first step is correct to adjastment network, further 2D,as it is possible I get easier in X. O.K. init 3 and sax2; Here again I agree with 3D yes! chameleon go to nvidia ftp and make update GLX self !!! all right. :)
