Thank you very much for your interest in BassMadrigal. Slackware setup- I believe I made it right. I will give the link to the underground installation. I am having trouble with nemo nouveau and only the video is watching the screen tearing. In the other linux distributions the same alone is not a problem with the nvidia-304 driver in them. I have to use linux-mint-18 to see it.Mint nvidia setting image is below linkte.Yani nouveau to nvidia-304 is not a problem.You are giving me your code again tomorrow slackware 14.2 I would like to share with you your output. Thank you very much for your reply. I wish my health and well-being.
Is your intention to use the opensource nouveau drivers (lower performance, but opensource) or the proprietary nvidia drivers (higher performance but closed source and requires rebuild after any kernel upgrade)? Based on your mention of trying to open up the Nvidia settings panel, I assume you want the proprietary drivers. Slackware does not include those in the distribution. You'd need to install them using the binary package from their site or using the SlackBuilds on SBo.
However, if you don't want to go through that hassle, you should still be able to get it working with the opensource nouveau that's included with Slackware, but we'll need to do further diagnosing.
I'm not sure where you got that command, because there's a few mistakes in there with the backslashes before cat and ls, making bash think there's a space before the ls, cat, and grep as part of the command (ie, it thinks ' cat', ' ls', and ' grep' are commands, which they aren't). If you want the output of the commands above to work properly (with a bit more detail in the xorg conf files section), try the following:
But, it is showing some serious glx errors, which shouldn't occur on a full install out of the box. What all have you done so far? To get basic support with nouveau, you should just need to do a full install, reboot, and startx... you shouldn't need any xorg.conf, but you should post the one you have anyway.

You just redid your same broken command. That doesn't provide all the information it is supposed to because it isn't formatted properly.
And the errors in your pictures seemed to be pretty self-explanatory. You can't be running X when you go to install the proprietary drivers. As root, run init 3 to get you out of X so you can install the drivers.
But I question whether that will work, because your system seems to be screwed up based on the errors from running glxinfo. And unfortunately, I don't have time to spend almost an hour watching the videos you used to install and configure your system (I am just on the forum at work during our downtime).
Also, please don't edit your posts to respond to people. The forum doesn't notify anyone of edits, so it's impossible to know that you replied to my previous message. Always reply using a new message to ensure everything is read properly
This SHOULD enable you to get support under Nouveau. The modern Nvidia drivers do not cover or offer support for 6x00/7x00 series chipsets. If you have trouble still and can't get any screens to exist, let us know and we can help you create the proper monitor configuration file also. While this does target the modesetting kms driver, this does however activate the Nouveau EGL driver under X11 for video acceleration.
I highly recommend that once you get this enabled you find the following packages on http://www.slackbuilds.org and use them to supplement your driver as needed:
Code:
driconf
libtxc_dxtn
Unless absolutely needed, you don't need the full xorg.conf file for Nvidia under Nouveau unless you have extensive issues getting stuff working. The Nvidia OEM driver however will recommend using the full xorg.conf and does, but it is a different driver.
