Still no joy. I really think it is either the card or the
xorg.conf file.
Thing is, when Mandriva failed to work, that makes me wonder about
the
card. It was using the generic "nv" driver and it still wouldn't
work.
IMO its a waste of time to worry about any of this other stuff - the
EE's in
the log file are ERRORs, directly pointing at serious issues with
missing
modules. So either the modules dont exist, or xorg cant find them.
There's no evidence of a problem with the nvidia module or the
hardware.
I don't think that's true.
In my Xorg.0.log I do have
(EE) Failed to load module "dri" (module does not exist, 0)
....
(EE) Failed to load module "dri2" (module does not exist, 0)
and still, X11 is running just fine. I think these modules are
superfluous with a recent Xorg version.
Helmut.
What I found with google, those modules used to be loaded separate bit
is now included into the drivers. So, it complains but they do load up
but just in another way.
I have had those errors on my old rig for a long time. It never caused
any problem that I know of. What bothers me is the last line about
glx. That I have not seen before.
