nvidia 7100, unknown chipset
Motherboard/Video Card Combo:
Biostar GF7100P-M7S (integrated Geforce 7100 chipset) I've installed the restricted drivers, and ran nvidia-xconfig after the drivers alone didn't work. I looked in my /var/log/Xorg.0.log and found: Code:
(--) PCI:*(0:16:0) nVidia Corporation unknown chipset (0x07e1) rev 162, Mem @ 0xed000000/24, 0xd0000000/28, 0xee000000/24 http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree8...ppendix-a.html So I tried to force the chipset in my xorg.conf's device section: Code:
Section "Device" Any Ideas? Thank you!!! - Florian |
Did you follow these instructions?

Just tried this but it didn't work either :-(
Code:
Section "Device" |
if I follow those links I get to http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_18897.html, but it doesn't list my video card. Any other ideas?
Thank you! - Florian |
it does list a 7100 GS, but that doesn't have the same chipset ID.

yay! Got it to work. Envy to the rescue:

NVidia just posted a driver for the GeForce 7xxx series on July 30, 2008. I just happened to get lucky to catch it. Can be found on the NVidia web site under Downloads. Choose the GeForce 7xxx series, Linux 32-bit drivers. Installed great on Fedora Core 9 box per their instructions.
