User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; zh-TW; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060930 Firefox/1.5.0.7 Build Identifier: I made a gentoo livecd for myself and installed the gentoo app-misc/livecd-tools. The livecd bootup normally, and detected the nvidia card, changed the xorg.conf with Driver 'nvidia'. But it only switched to xorg-x11 opengl. While I try it on another machine which had a "GeForce FX 5200", it worked perfectly and switched to nvidia opengl. Here is the information of " lspci |grep "VGA' " : 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 7300 GS (rev a1) I think the problem may be about livecd-function.sh. Reproducible: Always
No. The problem is the line from lspci. All cards are supposed to list the actual chipset, with the "marketing name" (GeForce 7300 GS) in brackets. nVidia Corporation G70 [GeForce 7600 GT] (rev a1) <-- like this The problem is that people don't follow the instructions on the pciids.sourceforge.net website and input invalid data, causing scripts which relies on such data to break. Can you post the output of lspci -n | grep 01:00.0 for me so I can fix it upstream?
Reassigning to the proper group since our releases don't support the binary drivers anymore due to GPL violations.

Well, I submitted this upstream, but it hasn't been accepted by the moderators yet. Anyway, I'm marking this as UPSTREAM since I no longer have any control over it.
