Rep:
Black screen after installing nvidia on Slackware 14.2
I'm probably missing out on something really important, but this is driving me nuts already.
I have a fresh 14.2 install, updated with slackpkg update; install-new, then upgrade-all. It also has KDE plasma installed with the below commands:
slackpkg remove kde
rsync -av --exclude=x86 rsync://bear.alienbase.nl/mirrors/alien-kde/current/5/ 5/
cd 5/
upgradepkg --reinstall --install-new x86_64/deps/*.t?z
upgradepkg --reinstall --install-new x86_64/deps/telepathy/*.t?z
upgradepkg --reinstall --install-new x86_64/kde/*/*.t?z
I wanted to try install nvidia graphics drivers, so I installed libvdpau, nvidia-driver and nvidia-kernel from slackbuilds following their instructions.
After that, the monitor opens up on runlevel 4 with a black screen and the cursor (single line) on the top left corner.
lsmod - no nouveau, nvidia is loaded

I think that we are missing the end of /var/log/Xorg.0.log.
Please start at runlevel 3 (just append " 3" to the command line without the quotes), then after having logged in type "startx".
If you see just a black screen probably the Xserver will be killed (shut down, to say it nicely). Then become root and type:
Code:
grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log > /tmp/X.log
and append this file to your next post (or just copy/paste its content).
Also this line puzzles me:
Code:
[ 48.639] Kernel command line: auto BOOT_IMAGE=Slackware ro root=fb00 vt.default_utf8=0
Where does "root=fb00" come? I have never seen that, hence my curiosity.
PS I am also puzzled by this line:
Code:
[ 48.639] (--) Log file renamed from "/var/log/Xorg.pid-1315.log" to "/var/log/Xorg.0.log"
. I have never seen that either

And while I doubt this is related to your issue, libvdpau is a stock package in Slackware 14.2 now, so there's no reason to get it from SBo. In fact, you would've gotten the version for 14.1 as it isn't in the 14.2 repo.
Did you get your nvidia packages from the 14.1 or 14.2 repo?

RTFM, is all you hear. What happens when you read and get errors along the way. Go back and RTFM a couple hundred more times. Eventually the lightbulb will pop on or maybe not. I share your sentiment. The truth might be bitter, but it shall set you free.

The issue on this thread is not the reason why I abandoned arch, I actually managed to fix it but forgot how. Maybe sddm issue. I actually switched to Arch (whose motto is RTFW) and I have to say it worked for me and I can say I've been a long way since.

I know this can be frustrating, especially when you're dealing with something new. But when you run into problems, give us the error messages and politely ask for help. We don't want to spoon-feed you every command and configuration change you need to make, rather, we like to steer you in the right direction to help you learn it on your own. You learn so much more when you have to figure a few things out rather than just being told to type commands. That's why I usually try to explain what the commands do when I provide them to people (if it doesn't seem obvious to me). If there's something that isn't properly addressed in the "manual" or the wiki, let us know. We want those to be a good reference for people to use. If they need adjustment, let us know so we can figure out what's missing or different. Keep in mind the people who are writing those pages are familiar with what they're writing on. Sometimes it's hard to take a step back and look at it from someone's perspective who is brand new to it.
In general, it's better to ask specific questions or ask about specific error messages rather than saying "help me set up an email server". Someone has likely already taken the time to document how to set one up, whether on the Slackware wiki, this forum, or one of the many websites out there. It's best to start working through those, and if you get stuck along the way, then you can ask how to proceed from there.
Hopefully we can continue to see you around and work towards improving your knowledge

You should get nvidia drivers from nvidia unless the .run is giving you installation issues.
