I reply to my self (in other similar thread): -----8<----------8<----------8<----------8<----- I was having similar problems with the nvidia driver on my 6.4-PRERELEASE machine. The solution was to remove agp and drm related drivers from the kernel configuration and setting: hw.nvidia.registry.EnableAGPFW=1 hw.nvidia.registry.EnableAGPSBA=1 In my sysctl.conf, and also setting: Option "NvAGP" "3" In my xorg.conf in the Screen section... The concrete problem -- not related with GL failures -- was system freezing with /sysctl -a/ command on terminal emulators from X server. -----8<----------8<----------8<----------8<----- I hope it would help others...
