Nvidia error on Linux
I have an Nvidia card on my Linux desktop. During boot-up, when the
start-up scripts run nvidia-config-display, they get an error message (see below).

I have an Nvidia card on my Linux desktop. During boot-up, when the start-up scripts run nvidia-config-display, they get an error message (see below). Does anyone know how this can be fixed? ================================================== ================== My first suggestion would be to make sure your system is updated. Python in particular has had some changes recently IIRC and glibc likewise. Keeping everything lined up on the same sheet of music makes all work much better. Beyond that, you would need to specify the nature of your system, the version of Linux in use, the kernel, and the software mentioned in the error messages of concern. And hope someone who is familiar with such things notices it. "Nvidia error on Linux" does not exactly draw attention to the specific problem you need addressed. You might also try booting to run level 3 (terminal mode) rather than to X-windows. On my system, this is controlled by a line in /etc/inittab id:3:initdefault: Change the 3 to a 5 to boot into a GUI.

It's becoming more evident that this is a Python problem (specifically the ixf86configmodule.so module). I upgraded to Python 2.6.2 but that did not fix the problem. Upgrading to Python 3.0 is not an option because it is incompatible with Python 2.0. prompt uname -a Linux hostname 2.6.29.6-217.2.8.fc11.i686.PAE #1 SMP Sat Aug 15 01:07:59 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux |

I've been setting up a new system with a card shown by lspci as nVidia Corporation G94 [GeForce 9600 GT] (rev a1) Running Mandriva linux 2009.1, I tried all of the nvidia kernel options from the Mandriva repositories, as well as the various options from the nvidia website, but had problems with video corruption, and/or lockups/crashes. Currently using NVIDIA-Linux-x86-190.25-pkg1.run, commenting out the InputDevice lines for the keyboard and mouse in /etc/X11/xorg.conf fixes the problems. This is the first system I've setup that uses a nvidia card. I subscribed to this newsgroup yesterday, and after reading your article, decided to give it a try (I'd expected to have to stick with the vesa driver for now), and to my surprise, it worked. Thanks again. Regards, Dave Hodgins -- Change nomail.afraid.org to ody.ca to reply by email. (nomail.afraid.org has been set up specifically for use in usenet. Feel free to use it yourself.) |

Try the driver for nVidia Geforce 6100 and later. This seem to work for me when I put 9400 card in. I alway check XFdrake after boot up. |
