It appears to me on investigating that the nVidia drivers from their web site do not work with the Xen kernel. If that is the case, is there a method or a driver available that will?
I understand that the generic nv drivers that were installed initially do work with Xen. If I were to uninstall the current nVidia drivers using Yast, would the nv drivers be loaded by default or does further work need to be done?
I currently have nvidia-gfxG01-kpm-default (169.09_2.6.22.16_0.1-0.1x84_64) and x11-video-nvidiaG01 (169.09-091) installed.
Any assistance is most welcome.
Thanks... Tom.
On uninstalling, try sax2 -r -m 0=nv where 0 is zero, not uppercase O. This will tell Xorg to use the nv driver instead of the nvidia driver. If you uninstall and reboot without doing the above, you might find that the machine cannot start its GUI. If so, go to one of the virtual terminal, log in as root and switch to runlevel 3 and run the same command above. But the ideal situation would probably have the system choose nv as the driver when you start the Xen kernel and have it run the nvidia driver when you use the plain vanilla kernel. Does anyone have any idea if that can be achieved? --- How -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
