Can you please try nvidia-glx-1.0.7174-r3

[Comment 4 Sebastian Bergmann (RETIRED) 2005-04-27 21:10:59 UTC]

Version 1.0-6111 of the NVIDIA driver is the last version that runs stable on my laptop (see http://www.sebastian-bergmann.de/blog/archives/473-Trouble-with-the-NVIDIA-Linux-Driver.html for details).

I will test xorg-x11-6.8.99.3 with nvidia-glx-1.0.7174-r3 but I am not optimistic that the driver will be usable for me.

[Comment 5 Sebastian Bergmann (RETIRED) 2005-04-27 22:34:20 UTC]

I tried xorg-x11-6.8.99.3 with nvidia-glx-1.0.7174-r3 now and it works. But out of two bootups so far I had one with the problem described at the URL I previously posted.

Going back to xorg-x11-6.8.2-r1 and media-video/nvidia-kernel-1.0.6111-r3 and media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.6111-r1 now.

I hope that version 1.0-6111 of the NVIDIA driver can be patched to work with X.org 6.9.0/7.0.0. Otherwise I am locked in with X.org 6.8.X.

Closing, versions of nvidia-kernel and nvidia-glx no longer in portage.
