Hello,
I'm experiencing problems with the Linux drivers as provided with
NVIDIA_GLX-0.9-4.1 and NVIDIA_kernel-0.9-4 which I downloaded from the
nvidia site.
I followed the installation instructions and I'm able to run the XServer in
2D and 3D modes. But I'm having a problem concerning the visuals supported
by
my XServer. xdpyinfo says:

As you can see there are four visual for TrueColor with identical
characteristics. IMHO this is the key to my core problem.
When I try to run KDE screensavers (i. e. kspace.kss) the screensaver
refuses
to work and tells me, that "GL can not render with root visual". Debugging
the code showed me the following:
XGetVisualInfo for visuals with class TrueColor (the visual class of my root
window) and depth 16 returns four visuals. My root window uses visual-id
0x22.
glXChooseVisual with GLX_RGBA and GLX_DEPTH_SIZE=1 returns 0x24.
Has anybody else experienced this problem? Is there a solution/work-around?
I would appreciate any
hints. Please reply via E-mail as I usually don't monitor this newsgroup.
Thanks! If you believe this is the
wrong newsgroup for my problem please direct me to a "better place".

Get out your motherboard manual, open up the case, and make sure the
jumper(s) are set so that the FSB is at 133MHz. Or look at the CPU
speed that Linux reports on boot, and look at the clock multiplier
jumper... if Linux reports a 600MHz CPU and the clock mult. is 4.5,
your FSB is at 133MHz.

If you mean can an ext2 filesystem be made with mke2fs? Yes, it will
allow about 119 megs in that format. ext2 reserves some space, and its
file tree takes some space.
I had several disks that were trashed while attempting to install the
drive on this amiga, and the disk rescue was to mke2fs them after moving
the drive to the linux box. They work just fine that way.

I tried Mandrake 7.0 distribution this time and update the pcmcia

in /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia
PCIC_OPTS="pci_csc=0 pci_int=0 irq_mode=0"
And I got the following message in the /var/log/messages

Hi guys,
I'm trying to install Redhat 6.2, but getting the following error:
"An error has occurred - no valid devices were found on which to
create new filesystems. Please check
your hardware for the cause of this problem"
Presumably there is a conflict with either my hard drive or possibly
my BIOS. I have a MAXTOR 20Gb
hard drive. My BIOS is (I think) Award Modular BIOS V4.51PG. I
don't know anything at all about BIOSs,
but I also get the following message at boot-up: "Intel 440BX AGPSet
BIOS for BX2000+ V.F3".
Does anyone know if either my hard drive or my BIOS are unsupported
in LINUX? Do I just need to
change my BIOS settings? Will LINUX never install on my machine?
Thanks in anticipation,
Ray

It could also be that the FSB/multiplier is set by "Softmenu" in bios - in
which case you can enter the bios setup program at boot to check this out.

I've never had a problem with that. Anyway, once the partitions are
mounted, it's easy to stray outside them as they all look like part of
one file system.

I've had lots of problems - but seldom with file systems which I

This is an Alpha so the only other one I might want is NT. For now I'll
run NT on my other Alpha box, but MS have dropped Alpha support so Linux
is 'way to go' in the long run. I guess I'll be confining NT/2000 to
Intel boxes in the long run.

I've never had a SCSI controller go down. Quite an assortment of disks
though. Three this year already.
Important stuff is usually backed up by distributing it around the
network and shipping it to clients.
I guess in the general run of things, I'd just copy it back over the
LAN. Right now, the Alpha NT box is only being a print spooler anyway,
and even that could be better done by an Intel box with a faster
ethernet card.

I have set my DRAM:Freq ratio to 4:3 (I have K7V - soft-menu control) -
which is supposed to make the DRAM run at 133 MHz. And the system _is_
