Unhappy X fails to start


I am using Debian 3.0r0 with a GeForce4 440mx, I am unable to "startx" due to no devices found. I have downloaded and installed the nvidia drivers, I have used xf86config (the text one) to create the config file but still get the no devices found when "startx"ing. When i run xf86cfg (the graphical one) I get the following error message:

(II) Primary Device is: PCI 01:00:0

Fatal server error:

XFree86 has found a valid card configuration.
Unfortunately the appropriate data has not been added to xf86PciInfo.h.
Please forward 'scanpci -v' output to XFree86 support team.

When reporting a problem related to a server crash, please send
the full server output, not just the last messages.
This can be found in the log file "/var/log/XFree86.8.log".
Please report problems to submit@bugs.debian.org.
This is rather weird as it is the configure program and should be able to get a very basic graphic session running. I'm sure it works as ive been using it with slackware 8.1 for a while now.

I am wondering why the system is loading all the drivers for so many different cards. I would suggest getting the Nvidia kernel and glx from Nvidia and installing that. Alternatively edit your XF86Config-4 to load the "nv" module.

You might want to try using the nvidia-kernel-src and nvidia-glx-src deb files. They make things run a lot smoother for Debian. (ie apt-get install nvidia-kernel-src and so on)

But before you do that though, you probably want to do a "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86" or manually edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and set the video driver to "nv" for the time being....

Hope it helps.....

btw.... also, when you are done building the nvidia drivers, you want to change the X video driver to nvidia from nv....
