It seems like I've tried just about everything here, but when I start up X (my wm is fvwm2), it takes almost 30 seconds to start up and my monitor stays black with clicking noises the entire time. I've tried all sorts of options given in the different forums and webpages, but I'm just having no luck. I'm using Gentoo 1.4_rc1 w/kernel 2.4.19. Here are the relevant sections of my XF86Config-4

Code:

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier "Generic"
    VendorName "Unknown"
    ModelName  "Unknown"

    HorizSync  30.0-69.0
    VertRefresh 50.0-120.0

   ModeLine "1024x768@85"  99.511  1024  1056  1408  1440  768  769  777  813 -hsync -vsync
   ModeLine "800x600@85"  56.566  800  824  1024  1048  600  601  607  635 -hsync -vsync
   ModeLine "640x480@85"  34.199  640  656  776  792  480  481  486  508 -hsync -vsync
EndSection

    VendorName  "Unknown"

    # Uncomment following option if you see a big white block
    # instead of the cursor!
    #    Option      "sw_cursor"

    Option      "NvAGP" "3"

        Option      "NoLogo" "TRUE"
EndSection

    Monitor     "Generic"
    DefaultColorDepth 24

    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       24
        Modes       "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
    EndSubsection
    Subsection "Display"

        Modes       "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
    EndSubsection
EndSection


When I run 'startx', I tail -f it from another machine and
this is what I get:

You might want to list what you've tried so we don't all just repeat them to you, but the most obvious is adding "127.0.0.1 hostname" to your /etc/hosts file, where hostname is your actual hostname of course (echo $HOSTNAME if you're not sure).

Yep, tried that. I kept it 192.168.0.3 (which is what it really is) and I've tried it as 127.0.0.1. Nada. localhost is still set to 127.0.0.1.

I can't even remember everything I've tried. I've done the hostname thing, making my own modeline and setting all the various options like IgnoreEdid and GenerateRTList and probably a bunch of other things, but I can't remember

Try specifying your resolution and vsync / hsync a little more tightly - the clicking noises mean the monitor & video card are trying to agree on a setting, and the startx output seems to agree.

Unfortunately this didn't help. I greatly reduced the vsync / hsync and I specified only a single resolution, but it still takes just as long. I don't remember it taking this long when I used the exact same config file and driver under Debian.

Well, i have the same problem and it seems there is no fix. I also tried mandrake and redhat, the same problem. In the time of mandrake 8.0 the nvidia driver worked fine. Somebody broked something.

I think you should also enable MTRR in kernel. I thnk it might help.

Try with the "nv" driver. I have the same problem, a delay of about 14 seconds. I used to run Windows XP, the same thing there. What MB are you using? VIA?

Hi Jeff! (heh... NMT students congregate on the gentoo forums...)

Unfortunately, this seems to be a common problem. On my machine, it takes a good 30 seconds to startx. I seem to remember that it would go by faster if I ran at a crap resolution, but that's no help :/

Anyway, I have no fix. Just wanted to commiserate about the nvidia drivers.

get rid of the mode lines. im willing to bet these are the cause.

as long as the v and h syncs are exactly as specified in your monitor manual, youll be fine.

and comment out the video ram line. it usually isnt needed either, it will normally be detected

I've tried everything in this thread. My comments:

Code:

    Option "IgnoreEdid" "1"
    Option "GenerateRTList" "0"


No go here. There weren't there before, and adding them didn't help.

Code:
modprobe NVdriver NVreg_SkipBiosPost=1


I get this in response:
Code:

Warning: loading /lib/modules/2.4.19-crypto-r7/video/NVdriver will taint the kernel: non-GPL license - NVIDIA
  See http://www.tux.org/lkml/#export-tainted for information about tainted modules
Warning: ignoring NVreg_SkipBiosPost=1, no such parameter in this module
Module NVdriver loaded, with warnings


Uh... yeah.

I just upgraded my GeForce2 to a GeForce4. Everything was fine with the GeForce2 card, I'm having the same problem as you with the GeForce4.

My log looks pretty much like yours with a lot of "hsync out of range". I guess my card decided to should use the following:
Code:

(**) NVIDIA(0): Validated modes for Display Device 0:
(**) NVIDIA(0):      Default mode "1152x864": 108.0 MHz, 67.5 kHz, 75.0 Hz
(**) NVIDIA(0):      Default mode "1024x768": 94.5 MHz, 68.7 kHz, 85.0 Hz
(**) NVIDIA(0):      Default mode "800x600": 56.3 MHz, 53.7 kHz, 85.1 Hz
(**) NVIDIA(0):      Default mode "640x480": 36.0 MHz, 43.3 kHz, 85.0 Hz


If I were to out that down in the config file somehow, would that speed up the start-up?

Oh, I was in touch with my manufacturers(MSI) tech support,
and they said that they had multiple complaints from people using NVidias drivers, in Windows. He said MSI don't support linux, but he believed it to be a problem with the NVidia driver itself. Do someone know of a way to contact nvidia about this? Because the "nv" driver have no such delay, perhaps they can look at it and figure out what they are doing wrong... :wink:
