Hey guys, wondering if I could get some help:)
I’ve recently installed the nvidia drivers on my OpenSUSE 11 machine for my 8800GTX card. My screen is at the correct resolution and looks great albeit pretty slow at times.
When trying to run sax2 -r or any iteration of sax2 I get the error below, I’m also unable to access my displays and video options from the System menu.
What could be the cause of this?
Thanks everyone!
SaX: initializing please wait...
SaX: your current configuration will not be read in

run from the command line in runlevel 3…
sax2 -c 0 -m0=nvidia
That should fix it.

Awesome, that fixed the problem but a new one has come up that I’ve been bonking around with all day (brain fried now from C++/Java grad studies ><)

It wants to open but doesn’t quite like something… Do I need to remove a video card?

This thread was a God send.
I had the same thing happen (see below) but with ATI. I have an onboard HD 3200 and an X1300 in the PCIe x16 slot. I want to get each going with separate monitors and set as separate Displays (1 & 2). The command:
sax2 -r -c 0 -m 0=fglrx
Solved the overflow problem but now I’m trying to figure out how to make sax see both. I tried:
sax2 -r -c 0 -m 0=fglrx 1=fglrx
But that didn’t seem to work, and I tried:
sax2 -r -c 0 -m 0=fglrx -c 1 -m 1=fglrx
But that didn’t seem to work either. Still trying, but any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
:~ # sax2 -p
