How about xorgcfg? while I didn't try running it the output of the xorgcfg looks to be the same as that of the Xorg -configure
xorg.conf as done by xorgcfg

If you comment out VendorName and/or BoardName from the first one's video card section, does it work? Nope nor if you comment out the BusID With those glxinfo give this name of display: :0.0 Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual visual x bf lv rg d st colorbuffer ax dp st accumbuffer ms cav id dep cl sp sz l ci b ro r g b a bf th cl r g b a ns b eat ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 0x21 8 pc 1 0 0 c . . 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 None 0x22 8 gs 1 0 0 c . . 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 None 0x23 8 sc 1 0 0 c . . 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 None 0x24 8 tc 1 0 0 c . . 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 None 0x25 8 dc 1 0 0 c . . 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 None 0x26 8 sg 1 0 0 c . . 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 None what the eternel-lands people and I got to thinking is that the glx needs the display modes that are not generated under the two methods but are under the other Identifier "nVidia FX5200"

Run lspci (emerge pciutils) and look for your video card, assuming its on :1:0:0 as the configure scripts gave, try changing so you have AGP:....: as opposed to PCI
Unless you really have a PCI FX5700 :)
Also try uncommenting the option NvAGP and setting is value to 3 (see in my dump of my section)
Closing for inactivity. Again, not fixed. Please reopen this if you attach new info. |
