[Sheflug] nVidia
Hi all
I have just got myself a new computer with a nVidia TI 4200 graphics card :),
but I have tried to install the drivers (NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4349.run) for
it from the nvidia web site and once I have changed the line from "nv" to
"nvidia" in the XF86Config-4 file and restart X it always displays a black
screen and does nothing else :(.
I have included the XF86Config-4 file, of course with the "nv" selected
because other wish I would not be able to startx :).
Just wondering if there is any silly mistake that I have done ?
I have checked the lspci -n and there is a "10de"
(01:00.0 Class 0300: 10de:0281 (rev a1)
which means that I have a nvidia card :).
When I quit out of X I get the error of
(EE) [GLX] : Failed to add GLX Extension (NVIDIA) XFree86 driver not found
Any advice will be greatfully recieved :)
Cheers
Ian
