Nvidia GeForce driver issue

Kenchie · 10-27-2006, 02:20 AM

Hi -

I'm running Suse 10.1 - I have installed the latest Nvidia drivers for my GeForce 6600 using online update, but the 'Activate 3D Acceleration' option in Yast is greyed out. Any ideas on how I can fix this please?

TIA

you should be able to enable/ disable any options manually by editing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf (or whatever the file is on suse).

But check to make sure that it's not greyed out for a reason. nVidia have had a few 'issues' recently with drivers so make changes carefully.

Also consider rolling back to previous driver that did allow you to enable your preferred options.

regards

Problem now fixed using tiny-nvidia-installer utility.

Thanks.
