Is het al iemand gelukt om de beta drivers van Nvidia te kunnen gebruiken bij deze kaart? (ter informatie: deze grafische kaart wordt niet ondersteund door de ubuntu drivers)
Ik heb de volgende howto gebruikt:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=460765&highlight=nvidia+8600Maar heb ook al andere howto's geprobeerd en uiteindelijk zelfs eens envy geprobeerd.
Steeds wordt er dus gebruik gemaakt van de volgende beta driver:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_100.14.06.htmlSteeds heb ik de xorg.conf laten maken door het installatieprogramma. De installatie verloopt dus steeds vlekkeloos.
Wanneer ik dan echter herstart komt er een fout opdat de x-server niet gestart kan worden (blauw scherm met rare tekens), waarna er een terminal volgt. Wanneer ik dan nog eens probeer met "startx" komt er volgende foutmelding op (ongeveer):
....
FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Aborting
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration
Fatal server error
no screens found
XIO: fatal IO errors 104 (connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0"
after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining
Hierna komt er dan terug een terminal. Door in xorg.conf de driver nvidia terug te veranderen naar nv, kan ik dan terug x opstarten.
Voor de volledigheid zal ik ook even mijn xorg.conf erbij zetten

De driver is dus wel degelijk "nvidia" en niet "nvidia-glx-new", want die ondersteunt de kaart niet.
Dank bij voorbaat
