Problem is that xorg-x11-driver-video and xorg-x11-server overwrite the files /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/nvidia_drv.so (with a symlink to nv_drv.so), /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libGLcore.so and /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so, but the nvidia driver says it's unable to overwrite them. removing the symlinks, copying the files from the extracted NVIDIA driver and making the library symlinks fixes it. I do this every time I upgrade the above mentioned packages from factory. BTW the files are also copied to /usr/X11R6/lib(64) by the nvidia-installer. # pkg-config --variable=moduledir xorg-server /usr/lib/xorg/modules
# pkg-config --variable=libdir xorg-server /usr/lib Regards Sid.
I checked all of the files you mentioned, but everything seemed to be in order. So I tried a ./NVidia-Linux-x86_64-1.0-9755-pkg2.run --x-module-dir=/usr/lib64/xorg/modules -s which worked for this time on Alpha 3. Now I can run compiz again without getting a white cube (though it seems working slower than on 10.2), thank you all very much for your help, have a nice time, regards, Tom

Correction. It is --x-module-path=/usr/lib64/xorg/modules -s !!! Please apologize, Tom --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
