I know this is for Ubuntu, but the generalities are probably relevant: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/NvidiaDriverSwitching#Problem:%20%20Swapping%20drive%20between%20system%20with%20-nvidia%20and%20non-nvidia%20causes%20breakage NVIDIA overwrites the system's libGL. nvidia-tls "provides thread local storage support for the NVIDIA OpenGL libraries (libGL, libnvidia-glcore, and libglx)" [1] I'd guess you still have the NVIDIA-installed libGL. Applications that link to libGL throw up because nvidia-tls is gone, but the NVIDIA libGL remains, maybe? Or at least the apps are still linked to the old libGL. Can you try: yum reinstall mesa-libGL ldconfig [1] http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/256.35/README/installedcomponents.html -- Dan Young _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
