Nvidia driver locking up video
FC5-i386, Nvidia AGP GeForce6600 Fuzion Graphics. kernel-2.16.17-1.2145/i686 .
"nvidia" driver, kmod-nvidia is locking up video. If I revert back to 2.16.17-1.2139 , using "nv" driver video works fine. Thanks Jim |
A couple of things you could try put a line like this in the Section "Device" in your X config file.
Code:
Option "NvAgp" "3" Code:
Option "RenderAccel" "false" |
Did you install the correct driver? If you're running a 686 system with hyperthreading, the smp versions of the kernel and nVidia drivers work well together.
Since you mentioned "kmod-nvidia," I assume you've read the "sticky" at the top of the forum, but I thought to remind others reading this comment of it's existence. |
I would like say I can boot into KDE and somewhere when I open a window, unexpectly one will lock up "X" but the mouse can still be moved around.
I have to hard shutdown and reboot.If I reboot into a old kernel that kmod-nvidia is not setup in, using the 'nv' driver I have no problems. I'm using the i686 arch. in smp and kmod-nvidia. I will enter in the optional settings in xorg.conf and see what happens. The nvidia drivers i'm using are from Livna. Thank for your help Jim |
Well HappyTux, I think I got it working normal now.
I set the 'Options' to: Option "NvAgp" "1" 2,3 wouldn't do it, it seems to like "NvAgp" "1" . So what does that Option setting affect ?? Thanks vey much for your help Jim |
