nvidia glx


I installed the nvidia module. andi have no problems with it, but I have no idea how to get the glx drivers. by starting xfree i get the errormessage that there is no glx driver installed.
And how do i start the modules automatical at startup. Do I just have to put the names in /etc/modules ?

You need to install the Nvidia kernel too.

I do not know what you exactly wanna say. It is only one file and not like in past the kernel and the glx file.

did you make sure in the Section "Device"
that you removed
Load "dri" and Load "glCore"
and make sure that
Load "glx" is added if its not already?
