[RE: NVidia GeForce MX2 XFree86 v4]
Hi,
I have the Geforce 2 MX ddr card succesfully working with xfree v4.0.3
running Testing on a pretty much standard 2.2 kernel.
I assume you have installed the nvidia packages, kernel and glx along with
xfree4.0.3 all available Debs in Testing. I would strongly recommend
not using the binarys at Xfree.org or the nvidia bins from them as at
a later date, you will run into depency problems (been there already!)
run 'xf86config' to get a basic xfree86config-4 file, you can select
geforce as your card as you are going to change it anyway.
then make the following edits:
Uncomment the line # load "GLX"
change the line Driver "whatever" to Driver "nvidia"
remove these lines load "dri"
if they exist load "GLcore"
Then make sure you have the following symbolic link
/etc/X11/X > /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86
create this with ::
ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 /etc/X11/X
HTH
Wayne.

Subject: NVidia GeForce MX2 XFree86 v4
I am having problems setting up XFree86 v4 with my NVidia GeForce2 MX.
I am using kernel 2.4.5 on Woody.
Has anyone gotten this card to work? Any tips on what I can try?
If I type XFree86 -configure
I get an -Number of created screens does not match number of detected
devices
Any suggestions?
Lance
