Hello,



I'm using FX5200, and i installed the 


NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.19-pkg1.run package. Here is what's written in 
the log files and I think is relevant:


Do you need help?X

(II) NVIDIA(0): Support for GLX with the Damage and Composite X 
extensions is

(II) NVIDIA(0):     enabled.
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module!
(EE) NVIDIA(0):  *** Aborting ***
(II) UnloadModule: "nvidia"
(II) UnloadModule: "wfb"
(II) UnloadModule: "fb"
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.


Fatal server error:


no screens found

Which kernel do you run? (Post the output of "uname -a".)



Which nvidia card are we talking about? (Post the relevant part of your
"lspci" output.)


Do you need more help?X

Which version of the nvidia driver did you install? (We need the exact
name of the file that you downloaded and executed.) Did you get any
error messages or warnings when you attempted the installation?



Change your xorg.conf to use the nvidia driver and (re)start X. After it
fails/crashes, run the following two commands and post their output:



egrep '^\((EE|WW)\)' /var/log/Xorg.0.log



egrep -i 'nvidia|glx' /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Thanks very much for replying. Could not ping the debian servers! I've
entered the ip address for the debian sites in the hosts an voila!
However, those are funky characters above... they worried me as well
and am not sure how and why they appear like that.

so you've got a name resolution problem. I'm betting that your
sources.list is not properly encoded somehow. try creating a new one
=66rom scratch and see what happens. no copy and paste! retype it in a
basic text editor like vim, or in a small operating system like emacs.


Don't know where to look next?X

The funky characters are the clue I'm looking at there...

Confused? Frustrated?X

OK, changing mixer settings does not help; there must be a more
fundamental problem with the driver or the hardware.

OK, so the hardware works.

To keep yourself entertained until you get the phonograph, you could
post the output of these commands:



cat /proc/asound/card0/codec* | head



grep '.*' /sys/module/snd_hda_intel/parameters/*

Hi Florian,

first of all, I'd like to thank you for your answers. Unfortunately,
two systems (C & B) just got grilled - guess I'm currently having
other problems than printing, but I'll come back to this thread as
soon as I'm able to provide the information needed. :)

Greetings,

Claudius

Change your xorg.conf to use the nvidia driver and (re)start X. After it
fails/crashes, run the following two commands and post their output:

egrep '^\((EE|WW)\)' /var/log/Xorg.0.log

egrep -i 'nvidia|glx' /var/log/Xorg.0.log
