Hi i need some help with my XF86 config :)

Alright so i'm new and well i'm not that good with computers >_<

well i installed a nividia video driver to play this game (Savage).

When i started it in The consol the error came up that i didn't have a GLX file thingy.

So a friend told me to go into XF86 to make one or something and there isn't a module section or dri to change to GLX so heres my XF86 and if someone could help me that would be great :D.

It looks like you posted the file /etc/X11/XF86Config.

The file you should have posted is: /etc/X11/XF86Config-4.

If your config file is set up properly, there should be a point in it that looks something like this:

Code:

---

Section "Module"
        Load        "bitmap"
        Load        "dbe"
        Load        "ddc"
        Load        "extmod"
        Load        "freetype"
        Load        "glx"      # This is what you should be looking for
        Load        "int10"
        Load        "record"
        Load        "speedo"
        Load        "type1"
        Load        "vbe"
EndSection

---

Make sure you have the line Load "glx" in the section Module, and make sure the lines Load "GLcore", and Load "dri" are removed.

Also note that linux is case sensitive.

Ok thank you very much :D

Alright so i got into the XF86config-4 and deleted the dri and Gl thingy (ya forgive my terminology) and the glx is in the file but when i start it up it still says that Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

and heres my new XF86

IF you can help plz help me :D thank you again

I've read that you had installed nvidia driver.
From your XF86config-4....it looks like your nvidia driver is not running(3d acceleration).
You need to edit one line so that nvidia driver can load and recognized:

# The following line is auto-generated by KNOPPIX mkxf86config
Driver "nv" ***Change to "nvidia"
VendorName "All"
BoardName "All"
# BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection


Save and reboot.........if you see Nvidia logo........means nvdia driver is running.

:D :D

Thank you very much :D

If the driver isn't on the cd, then get Kano's installer script.

http://kanotix.com/files/
and pick the driver version
or click here for the latest driver
http://kanotix.com/files/install-nvidia-6629-debian.sh


download the script, and as root do install-nvidia-6629-debian.sh

Ok so i saved the nvidia file thingy and i tried to run it in consol but this is what happened...

root@Aaron:/home/aaron# install-nvidia-6629-debian.sh
bash: install-nvidia-6629-debian.sh: command not found
root@Aaron:/home/aaron# exit
exit
aaron@Aaron:~$ install-nvidia-6629-debian.sh
Error: You must be root to run this script!
aaron@Aaron:~$

so what do i do now???

If you are going to use kano's script, you need to download two files:

1)install-nvidia-6629-debian.sh http://kanotix.com/files/install-nvidia-6629-debian.sh

2)install-kernel-source-vanilla.sh http://kanotix.com/files/install-ker...rce-vanilla.sh

First, open konsole and run:
1)su
2)enter password
3)sh install-kernel-source-vanilla.sh
4)wait till the process finnish
5)sh install-nvidia-6629-debian.sh


:D :D
