Arrow pci-e support: nvidia 6600gt not properly recognized? nvtv does not work...


hi all!

after installation of nvidia drivers (.7676) everything seems to be working fine except nvtv.

sax2 shows "nvidia" as a current driver, kde works with the desired resolution, etc.

nvtv (0.4.7) crashes with the following message:
Fatal: No supported video card found.

lspci gives out this (where the last line is what bothers me):
0000:00:00.0 Memory controller: nVidia Corporation CK804 Memory Controller (rev a3)
0000:00:01.0 ISA bridge: nVidia Corporation: Unknown device 0050 (rev a3)

0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation: Unknown device 0140 (rev a2)

what should i do to bring the nvtv to work?

my config:
asus a8n (nforce4)
amd64 3200+
asus 6600gt
suse 9.3 kernel 2.6.11-4.20a

NVIDIA will soon release new drivers for Linux that will also support SLI. I suggest you should wait untill the new version is released.
