 |
|
hello,
I'm having problems loading xorg. Here is the error: Symbol __glXgetActiveScreen from module /usr/X116/lib/modules/extensions/libdir.a
I don't have dri in my xorg.conf.
xorg = 6.8.0-r3
kernel = 2.6.9-gentoo-r9
nvidia-kernel (latest version, module is loaded)
updated xorg to use nvidia-glx
gnome
It was working fine for several days. Then I added a few option to my xorg.conf (changed the number of buttons and added dpms). Now I can't get it to work. I even tried going back to the old config. No go :/
here is my xorg.conf:
| Code: |
## xorg.conf

Fixed
The dri errors came from the xorg.conf in my /root dir (was testing as root). X wouldn't start because of some changes I made trying to get the back and forward buttons working on my mouse. Changes were taken from here. Doesn't look like they work anymore :/ |

I have been chasing my tail for several days trying to get kde/x to load with an xorg.conf file in /etc/X11 and every time I put an xorg.conf file in place X or KDE refuses to start. Remove or rename the file and magically X or kde loads and runs....but no open-gl acceleration.
Well after reading your trials and the conflict between the xorg.conf in ypur root folder...I thought may be I'll delete or rename that org.conf.new file also. Suprise it now loads with a normal xorg.conf file present in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf location!
Just as a heads up...there is a perl sciript that builds an xorg.conf for you. It is run when xorg is starting up....it is located in /usr/X11R6/bin/getconfig I was totally bumfuzzled about the fact that x would load without the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file in place!
Here is the piece of the log file for X that showed me what was up:
| Code: |
xf86AutoConfig: Primary PCI is 1:0:0
Running "/usr/X11R6/bin/getconfig -X 60800000 -I /etc/X11,/usr/X11R6/etc/X11,/usr/X11R6/lib/modules,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/getconfig -v 0x10de -d 0x0201 -r 0xa3 -s 0x1681 -b 0x0062 -c 0x0300"

Apparently this perl script would build a builtin conf file for X that would cause conflict with the xorg.conf in the /root folder and the /etc/X11/org.conf file.
Very strange in deed!! |
