|
|
everytime I start X I get the following error:
(EE) Failed to initalize GLX extension (Nvidia X driver not found)
I did an emerge on nvidia-glx and nvidia-modules
I also did modprobe nvidia added it to /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 and modules-update
Any ideas? |

Is the nvidia kernel module loaded?will tell you.
Are the nvidia device nodes under /dev created after the kernel module loads? Code: | ls -la /dev/nvidia* | will tell you. _________________ Military Commissions Act of 2006: http://tinyurl.com/jrcto
