nvidia driver in fedora 3 (FC3) crash xwindow fixed
The syndrome is that, X window can start, and can work for a
short time (for example, use mplayer), but the X window crash after about 3 miniute. I do the following, to stop the kernel acpi add "acpi=off" to the kernel parameter, you can edit the file "/boot/grub/menu.lst", and make the line something like this kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ro root=LABEL=/ acpi=off quiet MOREOVER, i stop the X window to load the "dri" and "freetype" (yes, is freetype) library. Edit the file "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" and comment the line Load "freetype" Load "dri" and add Load "glx" at the same Section if it not ready there. Then everything seem OK |
Are you sure you have the right driver ?
For some older cards the latest Nvidia driver has no support. You can find this on their site. If this is the case you have to load an older driver. To be sure it is the Nvidia driver, uninstall it and see what happens. You can do a lot of things without this driver, it is only needed for acceleration and 3d. CloudBuilder |
