xorg 7.0/nVidia & the SLOW 3D...{non issue}

This is a nice clean re-install of Gentoo.. The only changes I've made are updating xorg-x11 to 7.0-r1 and ~x86 nvidia (Tried to let xorg go ~x86 but that wouldn't even let the nvidia driver live along with it's server. (Later I read about xorg-server not playing nice with nvidia after 0.0.99 or something, I'd have to go look again.

Here are the items I've got....

nVidia FX5700LE 256mb ram card

dmesg:

nvidia-kernel-1.0.8762
nvidia-glx-1.0.8762
virtual/opengl-7.0

When I try gxlgears I get around 2000 fps. However when something full screen comes along, like say .. a screen saver, or heaven forbid, a game .. It goes to .. I guess around .5 frames a second? (Takes a lot of patiance, and time to get my mouse up to "exit"). I get the nice bright white Nvidia logo for both monitors on boot as well. If you all need to see my xorg.conf file I can provide that too.

Is there something unique I need to hammer out to make nvidia perform as it should?

Thank you much,
Justin

Chances are, looking at the xorg.conf and the /var/log/Xorg.0.log would help any diagnosis (it looks like the kernel module likes your card though).

Also, wrong forum.

and a little /var/log/Xorg.0.log for you'ns... I only clipped the last bit .. Don't know how much you needed though .. Above what I've got here are some hex codes it looks like .. and some older stuff .. The nvidia stuff looks like it's here though .. That might be the important part .. I remember on my last install it was laggy as far as video was concerned too .. I can't tell exactly when it all slowed down though .. Hopefully I've got something obvious here that I'm just missing ..

Thank you for your time ..

P.S. Know off the tip of your head if there is a ZAxis for sideways mouse wheel use? ..

Well, I can't see anything immediately apparently wrong (unfortunately, I don't have an NVIDIA box at my disposal anymore, and don't remember any of the xorg.conf subtleties involved; also, I definitely never ran a system with more than one screen, which helps me not help you...). Run "glxinfo"; does it say "direct rendering: yes"? (it should be the third line-ish; I'm using my Mac while I run my ATI Radeon IGP 345M Gentoo 76 degrees C box of dooom headless on a brutal "emerge -e world" and I'm still downloading X11 for OS X)

Xorg seems to always kick my butt .. (and proftpd, but that's the servers problem not mine ..)

Thanks for the idea to look in my glxinfo though, I had forgot about that little tool ..

Well, I can't tell what the problem is =\

I'll wait till the fall to see if I want to get a MacBook Pro, a Mac Pro or just build my own PC. Lots of factors, really; college, money, Intel Core 2, what moves ATI and NVIDIA pull next, etc.

(Forgot to say: sideways mouse wheels in my experience tend to be sent in the same way as the extra media buttons on mice instead of mouse buttons you click like the vertical scrolls do; perhaps the wiki has a better answer than I do, but I don't know... ever since I made my .Xmodmap work it's been smooth sailing and I never touched it)

No prob, all the mouse works great just not the side to side on the wheel (Well, it hasn't cut and pasted via the middle button for a minute, I might a borked that) ..

I keep waiting for the newest Apple stuff to drop in price, but .. that wait has been going on now for about 9 years .. lol .. Ever since my Performa I've been building my own stuff, but missing Apple's OS .. (Gentoo is my perfered, but when school beccons for some stuff, gotta go back to Mac) ..

Back to messing with other stuff,
But thank you for your time,
Justin

Did you try adding DRI in the module load section of xorg.conf?

BRPXQZME · Post by **BRPXQZME** » Tue Jul 04, 2006 7:04 am

You're not supposed to do that with NVIDIA cards, that I do remember. Disable dri, enable glx, that's what the docs say. Besides, it says that direct rendering is working, so I don't think that's the issue.

67comet · Post by **67comet** » Tue Jul 04, 2006 8:43 am

That's a roge on the Nvidia-DRI .. I've had it both ways on this xorg.conf and it didn't make a diff. The only thing I've noticed for sure was, that the newer the xorg-x11 the worse it works with nvidia, and the slower my 3d numbers get.

Thanks for the conversation, brings up good things for me to check ..

the nvidia manual is outdated- I always put dri in xorg.conf, no issues.
As for the nvidia driver not working with xorg 7.1, that's because there's been an ABI change in 7.1 that's incompatible with binary drivers (such as nvidia and ATI). For nvidia, you'll have to wait till the 9xxx driver series is available (already available on windows, so it shouldn't be long now) to use 7.1.

I'm using modular X (7.0), and my 3D seems to work great (nVidia GeForce Go 7400), using the latest available driver from nvidia.

Another thing I would check is the BIOS- I've had an issue on a PC before where the BIOS (for some reason) decided to switch the mode from AGP to PCI.

One last thing- You've probably already done this, but emerge nvidia-settings, and make sure the settings aren't out of whack (very unlikely, but it's worth a try).

67comet · Post by **67comet** » Mon Jul 10, 2006 3:33 am

I did have nvidia-settings fired up .. all looked well ..

I'm re-installing on my main workstation now, paying close attention to make sure I don't put anything extra on there .. (don't know, but the new modular x11 seems way more bloated than the old one .. just broken up more) ..

I'm setting it up to run xgl also, that should really kill what ever it's got going on .. lol

Thanks for your time,
Justin
