Those drivers not working for me 
It says GLX is missing from diplay. When I change back to 6111 it works.

Hei s4kk3
That's a great pity.. besides being faster, this is the sharpest screen I've seen on Linux so far!
Btw I'm using development-sources 2.6.10-rc1

you have to put the option in the Device section of the Nvidia Card. |
Oh yes, works now, thanks (did I have to know that?). 
But still, no performance boost here.
s4kk3: Did you read the whole thread thoroughly, particularely the first post?
Maybe your problem is already described here... |

So you're going to have to manually link that if you come across the same problem.
Also note that the new driver has a new option that by default disables glx if the composite extension is enabled. To enable GLX + Composite (at your own risk), add this to the device section of xorg.conf: | Code: | | Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true" |

Thx, that's why glxgears wasn't working

I have problem with new drivers. When I run game eg.:
./foobillard: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/opengl/nvidia/lib/libGLcore.so.1: undefined symbol: _nv000790gl
or tuxracer:
./tuxracer: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/opengl/nvidia/lib/libGLcore.so.1: undefined symbol: _nv000790gl
mplayer with USE flag "nvidia" same error
Best regards

To get it to work with 2.6.10-rc1-mm3, apply that patch as well as this one:
http://thanks.teambarry.org/kernel/broken-out/2.6.10-rc1-mm3-barry1/nvidia-gpl-symbols-to-regular-symbols.diff
Then apply the following to the Nvidia drivers (do "ebuild /path/to/nvidia-ebuild unpack", patch manually, then "ebuild /path/to/nvidia-ebuild compile install qmerge"):

Works great for me with 2.6.9-nitro1. A more detailed changelog would be nice, though... (for example, what "improved support for RenderAccel" actually means).

Switching to vesafb-tng solved the problem with console...
Turning off fb support also should help, I think...

suspend still doesn't work here. I tried various combinations:
with/without APM and ACPI.
I removed linux agpgart,drm from kernel. vesafb-tng is there. APIC also removed. 4k stack not there. pre-emptible kernel is there.
All lead to X running with 100% CPU. nitro2 with xorg-x11-6.8.0-r1.

Yes I did. Had once before this problem, but 6111 fixed it. Maybe I should try the ones from nvidia site. Hope it will help. So annoying see people saying it's much faster than older drivers.

Woo. Upgrading to 6629 gave me an increase in glxgears of about 30% with the 2.6.9-nitro1 kernel! However, when I try to run ut2004 I get this message:
| Code: | Could not load OpenGL library
History:
Exiting due to error
|
Anyone know what's going on? Would it help at all to re-emerge UT? |

| Well, to answer my own question, re-emerging didn't do anything. I didn't think it would, since UT is a binary package. Oh, well. |

Legoguy: Before you did the manual linking, did the directory /usr/lib/modules/extensions actually exist? Thats basically what im trying to establish, why it failed.
For everyone that is experiencing OpenGL issues, please exit X and do the following
| Code: | emerge -C nvidia-glx
opengl-update xorg-x11
rm -rf /usr/lib/opengl/nvidia
emerge nvidia-glx
restart X |
As for the mm-sources hacks is it only mm-sources that require the NVIDIA-to-level-4.diff patch to be applied? |

I use XOrg-6.8.0-r1 and -nitro2.
AGPGart must be compiled in! Well, I tried to disable it too - and had black screen after resume. Phenomenally
Option "NvAgp" "1"
in xorg.conf disables AGPGart, enables NV-AGP
[edit]
And does nothing Because AGPGart was built in kernel.
The only solution is to disable AGP at all by
Option "NvAgp" "0"
[/edit]
DRM is useless with nVidia cards - disabled
APM disabled
ACPI enabled (I use acpid and power button to hibernate)
APIC is useless with my mobo (nforce2 chipset), disabled even in BIOS.
Preempt the big kernel lock enabled.

yah... 6.8.0-r1...
The digits "6.8.1" was in my head because of xorg.freedesktop.org. Sorry  |

Ok, I finally got it working. culprits?
1.) Under ACPI, CONFIG_X86_PM_TIMER should NOT be set.
2.) APIC has to be disabled too.
Thanks a lot Apexman, you rock!!
PS: did you notice that gnome-settings-daemon gets killed during resume? |

Hmm, it's enabled in my config. But this may be hardware-related situaton, I think.

No, on my system it's running wih the same PID, as before hibernation.  gnome-2.8 (control-center-2.8.0) |

hmm.. i couldnt get it to work  i tried all the possible solutions above, none of them work..
it compiles everything fine.. it hung on starting kde, during the splash screen...
it just sits there.. nothing happen...
change back to 1.0.6111-r3 now, until it is stable...
btw im using 2.6.9-ck1 and xorg-6.8.0-r1
