[11.2] 3D Acceleration problem.

English Hardware
1

Hi, i’ve downloaded Eternal Lands game client and have a one problem - 2 max 3 fps.

I have installed nvidia drivers and everything what yast suggested me. It’s strange because I can play 3d games and use desktop effects.

glxinfo tell me “WARNING: Direct Rendering is NOT enabled.” but when i type sax2 3d acceleration is enabled and checked.

I tried to reinstall drivers but still the same situation. What’s going on?

Please post output of:

rpm -qa | grep kernel-

rpm -qa | grep nvidia

uname -a

You have two Kernels installed (Desktop and Default) but your driver only supports the default kernel. I don’t know if it’s possible to have both drivers installed. In this case you need to install “nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-desktop”.

If this is not possible you need to remove either “kernel-desktop” or “kernel-default” and then be sure to have the correct driver package (“nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-desktop” or “nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-default”)

I did as you said.
I removed “kernel-default” and other not needed things. After all i reinstalled video drivers, now it is…

damian@linux-3d10:~> rpm -qa | grep kernel-
kernel-desktop-2.6.31.8-0.1.1.i586
linux-kernel-headers-2.6.31-3.4.noarch

damian@linux-3d10:~> rpm -qa | grep nvidia
x11-video-nvidiaG02-190.53-9.1.i586
nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-desktop-190.53_2.6.31.5_0.1-8.1.i586
nvidia-texture-tools-2.0.6-3.1.i586

…but still glxinfo tell me

...
***
*** WARNING: Direct Rendering is NOT enabled

in sax2 acceleration is enabled and checked.

Maybe i should edit xorg.conf or something? (I didn’t do anything yet)

The latest driver is 190.53 so you might try updating to see if that helps. Also, could you post the result of

lsmod | grep nvidia

And remember, 11.2 doesn’t use xorg.conf by default. The user has to run sax2 in order to create it.

Oops. My bad, I saw nvidia-settings-190.36 and thought that was the driver you have installed. So forget what I said about updating.

Still, please post the output of lsmod | grep nvidia.
