Description Lukasz Ligowski 2008-02-15 21:44:13 UTC
emerge -av =nvidia-drivers-169.09-r1

after this X.org does not start

from X.org log:

(II) NVIDIA(0): NVIDIA 3D Acceleration Architecture Initialized
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Need libwfb but wfbScreenInit not found

Fatal server error:
AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0

after diffing ebuild 169.09 (which was OK) and 169.09-r1 i've noticed that following line:
newexe ${libdir}/modules/libnvidia-wfb.so.${sover} libwfb.so

changed to:
doexe ${libdir}/modules/libnvidia-wfb.so.${sover}

after changing back to:
newexe ${libdir}/modules/libnvidia-wfb.so.${sover} libwfb.so

everything works perfectly




Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
install nvidia-drivers-169.09-r1
Actual Results:  
xorg fails to start

Expected Results:  
xorg will start

i guess it's not necessary this time...

I've read disscussion on bug 202978 and I think that you might like to see this:

silownik ~ # ls -l /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libwfb.so
ls: cannot access /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libwfb.so: No such file or directory

/usr/lib64/opengl/nvidia/extensions/libwfb.so exists because I modified 169.09-r1 ebuild
