RE: Any Ideas On X Freezing up with NVIDIA Drivers?

2003-10-23 Thread Chris Readle
Hi,

What Nvidia card are you using?  What drivers are you using?  Can you post
your dmesg, uname -a and XF86Config?

 Hi,
 I am also having  alot of problems, my problem is when i load the 
 driver and try to run X i am getting crazy matrix like characters on the
 
 screen.  X does not come up and the char's stay present until i reboot. 
 
 I have been reading the postings but have been unsuccessful with finding
 
 a solution.  It seems like others are having similar problems but i dont
 
 see any type of solution or it there is one for this card.   It would be
 
 nice to be able to use the new card.  Any Ideas?

Sorry for the delayed response, was out with a sick child yesterday and
had no web access at the Dr's office (they really need to put hotspots in
waiting rooms! ;).

At any rate, I also haven't had a chance to look at my files yet, but I
wanted to make sure to remind you to set option NvAgp 2 if you do,
which I know for a fact I'm using in my file.

  Are you using *dm (xdm, kdm, gdm, etc) or are you
  booting to CLI and doing
  startx?  I've had more issues with kdm and my FX
  than with CLI + startx.
 
 Actually I start up in the CLI and startx to get in
 
  As for AGP and kernel config, I've gotten mine
  working with AGP in the
  kernel and compiled with no optimizations other than
  CPUTYPE.
 
 I will try again with it like that
 
  Once I get a look at your files (and compare them to
  mine at home) I might
  have some more suggestions.

 That would be very cool = )
