Good afternoon, everyone!
I'm sorry to open such a thread again, but I found 2 topics regarding this issue
here. It appears that one of them ("remove xorg-server to emerge nvidia-glx
<=Normal?") had a solution but it was posted on a site
(http://rafb.net/paste/results/HPsvCD94.html) which deletes the messages a few
days
after they are published.
So let me get to the point.
System:
Athlon-XP 1700+ CPU, Epox mobo with NForce chipset and Nvidia GeForce4 MX440
Graphics card.
Arch = "x86"
X Window System Version 6.8.2
Release Date: 9 February 2005
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.8.2
Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.16-ck12 i686 [ELF]
Purpose:
I want to upgrade my X so I would be able to run Xgl & Compiz.
Tried so far:
I believe 7.0.* is the right version for my case. I've tried to put the mask
shown
on the official Gentoo site about "migrating to mudular X". Unfortunately for me
that mask pulls version 7.1. Then I put "<=7.1" in package.mask which led to
lots of
unresolved deps. After playing with masks & versions the whole weekend I gave
up ;-(
Please, help me start running Xgl & Compiz on system with GeForce video.
