yet another nvidia glx error

Sammy2ooo · 03-23-2004, 06:39 AM

Hello

i have searched this board for this issue but couldn't find anything appropriate.

This is the relevant part in my XFree log

Code:

 0 13:34:12 sammy@uranos:~ $ grep EE /var/log/XFree86.0.log
         (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to load GLX

trying to run glxgears shoots my x

Code:

 0 13:35:39 sammy@uranos:~ $ lsmod | grep nvidia
nvidia               2070760  8

Code:

 0 13:35:42 sammy@uranos:~ $ xdpyinfo | grep GLX
    GLX
    NV-GLX
    SGI-GLX

I have checked the links they are allright!

Code:

I have compiled the agpart module into the kernel. I really don't know whats going on here.

Any hints would be greatly apreciated....

Greets

P.S. Yes, i love to grep

Sammy2ooo · 03-23-2004, 06:49 AM

Ups, forgot to mention that i have removed dri and glcore from the XF86Config and changed nv to nvidia, regarding the README.....

Pwnz3r · 03-23-2004, 07:04 AM

You have put 'glx' in it as well, right? I'd show you part or the whole of my XF86Config file so you could check, but I'm at school on a very crappy Windows box right now.

(all problems have been underlined)

Sammy2ooo · 03-23-2004, 07:36 AM

I have just reinstalled the driver, and now i can start glxgears without any errors

what to you think about this values??

Code:

1376 frames in 5.0 seconds = 275.200 FPS
1376 frames in 5.0 seconds = 275.200 FPS
1399 frames in 5.0 seconds = 279.800 FPS
1378 frames in 5.0 seconds = 275.600 FPS
1380 frames in 5.0 seconds = 276.000 FPS
1333 frames in 5.0 seconds = 266.600 FPS
1365 frames in 5.0 seconds = 273.000 FPS
1391 frames in 5.0 seconds = 278.200 FPS
1385 frames in 5.0 seconds = 277.000 FPS
1368 frames in 5.0 seconds = 273.600 FPS
1373 frames in 5.0 seconds = 274.600 FPS
1360 frames in 5.0 seconds = 272.000 FPS
1383 frames in 5.0 seconds = 276.600 FPS
1406 frames in 5.0 seconds = 281.200 FPS
1372 frames in 5.0 seconds = 274.400 FPS
1368 frames in 5.0 seconds = 273.600 FPS
1368 frames in 5.0 seconds = 273.600 FPS

enemy terriotory only runs at 800x600 well...

JaseP · 03-23-2004, 08:34 AM

If that's any kind of modern card, you aren't running accelerated...

Check if glx is being loaded in the XFree86Config file. Also, chekc the setting for agp in the driver's agp setting. If you are using AGPgart, it should be a 2 I think...

Sammy2ooo · 03-23-2004, 09:06 AM

i have added this option to my x config, but as you can see nothing has changed,
agpart is build direct into my kernel.

Code:

1204 frames in 5.0 seconds = 240.800 FPS
1380 frames in 5.0 seconds = 276.000 FPS
1375 frames in 5.0 seconds = 275.000 FPS
1366 frames in 5.0 seconds = 273.200 FPS
1364 frames in 5.0 seconds = 272.800 FPS
1376 frames in 5.0 seconds = 275.200 FPS
1391 frames in 5.0 seconds = 278.200 FPS

although i have added config Option "NoLogo" "1" the nvidia logo doesn't show up. (i have also tried nologo 0!!!)

xdpyinfo doesn't show all the needed modules.

Code:

 0 16:05:54 sammy@uranos:~ $ xdpyinfo | grep -i glx
    GLX
    NV-GLX

What else can i do??

thx

JaseP · 03-23-2004, 09:14 AM

Hmmm, it appears you don't have nvidia-GLX running.

my running of that command produces:

Quote:

xdpyinfo | grep -i glx
GLX
NV-GLX
NVIDIA-GLX

Of course, I think for both of us that we probably don't want nv-glx showing up at all...

Anyone more conversant in nVidia drivers want to respond to this???

dest · 03-23-2004, 09:17 AM

Well, if it was installed properly you would have got over 1000 fps, this is my fps with PowerColor Radeon 9800 PRO

Code:

debian:/home/dest# glxgears
20572 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4114.400 FPS
23397 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4679.400 FPS
24160 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4832.000 FPS
24297 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4859.400 FPS
24126 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4825.200 FPS
24190 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4838.000 FPS
24003 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4800.600 FPS
23675 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4735.000 FPS

Sammy2ooo · 03-23-2004, 09:34 AM

well, my card has GeForce2 MX/MX 400 chipset. so its not the fastes...
but 280fps is really slow.

Code:

 0 16:24:41 root@uranos:~ $ modinfo nvidia && uname -va
license:        NVIDIA
vermagic:       2.6.4-rc3 preempt K7 gcc-3.2
depends:        
Linux uranos 2.6.4-rc3 #7 Wed Mar 10 19:13:45 CET 2004 i686 unknown unknown GNU/Linux

so thats right to, why does this nvidia don't show up. If remove the option NoLogo per default the logo should show up, but nothing happens

JaseP · 03-23-2004, 11:21 AM

Did you uninstall the nv drivers before installing the nVidia proprietary drivers???

Sammy2ooo · 03-23-2004, 11:47 AM

yes the installer itself recognizes that there's already an installation and uninstalles the old installation first, afterwards it continues installing. the libs have the right version number

Sammy2ooo · 03-23-2004, 12:13 PM

i am sure that my graphic card has 64MB ram. why does lspic show that the memory has 16M or 128M ??!?!?!?!

When all else fails, fsck me. Anyway, let me examine the stuff.... To put it simply, it's as if you are not initilising the glx module within the XF86Config file. With that being said, please post the contents of the file.
