Does the following minimal Xorg.conf work for you? Section "Files" ModulePath "/usr/lib/xorg/modules/linux" ModulePath "/usr/lib/xorg/modules" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "My GPU" Driver "nvidia" EndSection Since X seems to work without xorg.conf (unless you lock your screen) please get Xorg logs from both no xorg.conf and a working minimal xorg.conf > Workaround is to generate /etc/X11/xorg.conf by running nvidia-xconfig > # nvidia-xconfig > # /etc/init.d/lightdm restart > * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or > ineffective)? > > Adding NVidia’s drivers path in /etc/X11/xorg.conf in the otherwise empty > “Files” section: > Section "Files" > ModulePath "/usr/lib/nvidia" NEVER EVER add "/usr/lib/nvidia" as a search path. This tree will also contain incompatible legacy modules. Use /usr/lib/xorg/modules/linux instead. There will be a symlink to the correct module. > ModulePath "/usr/lib/xorg/modules" > EndSection > > The paths are those that contain libglx.so > # find /usr/ -name libglx.so > /usr/lib/nvidia/libglx.so > /usr/lib/nvidia/current/libglx.so > /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so > /usr/lib/xorg/modules/linux/libglx.so > > Found this idea in the NVidia Dveloper forum: > https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/800059/linux/glxinfo-command- > returning-quot-badwindow-invalid-window-parameter-quot-error/ Andreas
