Can I ask about the symlink? Where is it and where should it point? I cannot get the accelerated 3D feature of nvidia to work. The installer claims it is successful, but 3Ddiag says the driver installation failed. The 'device' section of XF86Config shows the driver as "nvidia". XFree86.0.log says the glx module failed to load, but the nvidia driver is loaded. Is there is a symlink that should point to glx but doesn't? Or perhaps I have more serious problems. This is for SuSE 8.2 with kernel 2.4.20-109. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. -Ed C. in Oregon On Sunday 18 April 2004 09:06, Bjorn Tore Sund wrote:

I had that issue with the only SuSE 8.1 machine with an nVidia card I've still got running. No problem with SuSE 8.2 or SuSE 9.0. The issue not being the difference in the version number but that the build symlink was going the wrong place. I did not issue make install after upgrading anywhere, I've confirmed that there's no glx problem on SuSE 8.2 or SuSE 9.0, but won't be able to get my hands on the SuSE 8.1 box until tomorrow.
