first, thats _not_ an xorg problem.
I'm trying to get X.org to work with the drivers from NVidia instead of
the nv driver, so I can play bzflag and so on.
But when I'm trying to load X.org with the nvidia kernel it freaks out
complaining about no screens.
It looks like this:
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module!
(EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting ***
(II) UnloadModule: "nvidia"
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
Where do I start to make it work _my_ way?
i guess your nvidia card is an old one (lspci). i use a gf 2ti and there are
some issues with the new kernelversions and the nvidia driver (read
about that on nvidia.com)
at least i got all working fine:
Linux violet 2.6.9-gentoo-r9 #2
and the 6626 nvidia driver (i think thats the right version, but iam
not sure) as binary/installer from nvidia.com.
So long

Aaahhh... that's why.
Yeah, it's quite old. An old GF2 MX400 :p ... it's almost blasphemy to
call it a graphics card.
I'll see what I can find then ;)
