Setting nvidia options?

EnVoy · 04-05-2004, 09:13 PM

I would like to make it so the nvidia splash screen does not show during the boot process, exactly how do you do that?

I have found this in the nvidia readme, under the "XF86CONFIG OPTIONS" section:
"Option "NoLogo" "boolean"; Disable drawing of the NVIDIA logo splash screen at X startup. Default: the logo is drawn."

But I'm not sure exactly what to type in, and where. Any help?

Open up /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, I think it's -4 if not it's XF86Config. Look for a section titled Section "Device". Within that section you should see this option, Driver "nvidia". Add the option in that section. The section ends with EndSection. You are setting an option for the video card so you want to set it in the section for the video card. Options for other devices would go in their section.
