lol

openSuSE is really esay!! (i have 10.2 too, but with ati) did u try this guide?

http://en.opensuse.org/Nvidia

easiest is imposible!!

Yup, I did all of that, and still no results. I have no idea what is going on. And yeah, openSuSE is pretty easy, which is why I'm so confused. Normally I can figure out why something isn't cooperating, but this and KDM are just ... ugh

Alright, I found my KDM problem(displaymanager in suse(orsys?)config wasn't saving whenever changes were not in a text editor. so I popped in and changed DISPLAYMANAGER from xgl to kdm), and now everything is good for that. however it still didn't solve my direct render problem.

klixon · 10-10-2007, 08:46 AM

nvidia only needs glx loaded, no dri...
where did you put the rolaucher? could be a rights issue...
Have you tried removing all regnum files and re installing?

well is a good notice too

mmm.. did u try to configure with sax2?

try in run level 3 (init 3): sax2 -r

and then configure your graphics settings

Nysomin · 10-11-2007, 01:50 AM

Yes, I tried sax, nothing, and as for it being a rights issue, good point. Also I should probably mention I'm running a 64-bit system(I have no idea if it makes that big of a difference with RO or not), abut I've only found 2 files RO made, rolauncher and system.nfo and deleteing them and re-unpacking them doesn't help, same message. By the way, incase this helps, here's the contents of the system.nfo file:

[CPU]
- Vendor Name: AuthenticAMD
- Model Name: Unknown

I think the OpenGL Support: 0 is a clue. However OpenGL seems to be working fine, I think.

Nysomin · 10-11-2007, 01:56 AM

Oh, and I just found the experimental 64-bit client, smae error, so... yeah...

Nysomin · 10-11-2007, 03:51 AM

Ok, another step towards progress, I think. I was poking around a few threads here and tried a few steps for other problems people have had, and it has given me more info as to what may be the issue, first:

MALLOC_CHECK_=0 ./rolauncher
Xlib: extension "XFree86-VidModeExtension" missing on display ":0.0".

second:

glxinfo | grep version
server glx version string: 1.2
client glx version string: 1.4
OpenGL version string: 1.2 (2.1.1 NVIDIA 100.14.19)
glu version: 1.3

I'm pretty sure that the server and client glx versions should be the same, but I could be wrong.

klixon · 10-11-2007, 10:07 AM

I'm pretty sure the server and client version don't have to be the same, but i can check when i get home from work

I think the problem is the missing "XFree86-VidModeExtension"

Do you have

Code:

load "extmod"

in the "Module" section of your xorg.conf? If not, try adding it and restart you X server (log out and do ctrl-alt-backspace)
