Subject: X not starting at all
Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2004 22:16:25 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4002CF61.6040507@sancharnet.in> (raw)
Hello,
it's me again.
Thanks again for the help you guys gave me when I had a problem with my
modules.
from when I had installed Woody, I was not able to startx as I have a
Geforce4 MX 440 SE which was not supported by the nv driver in X (I have
version 4.1.0.1)
I got a new driver from the Nvidia site (the latest is pkg2 I think, I
have pkg0 ).I installed it and yet startx would not work.
since X loads its drivers from /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers , I moved
the new NV module (nvidia.ko ) and renamed it nv_drv.o which was the nv
driver (this is illogical, I know , but I was desperate.....)
and it gave me another error message module does not have nvModuledata
data object and died on me. I just got Gnome 2.4 and I'm desperate to
install it.
So anybody with the ideas flashing,
HELP!
thanx in advance,
Joy
