[05:20]<vwnnmfnqurq>dulymachine: The modules file has the wrong hardware listed.
[05:20]<dufddraxygn>right
[05:21]<dufddraxygn>so, you've probably got it from here eh?
[05:21]<vwnnmfnqurq>dulymachine: I will correct it and try again. I'll fill you in on #gentoo after I try again.
[05:21]<vwnnmfnqurq>thanks!
[05:21]<dufddraxygn>ok
[05:21]<dufddraxygn>no problem
[06:42]<srmfjumfm>y0
[06:42]<srmfjumfm>linuxfan2006,
[06:42]<srmfjumfm>here we go
[06:43]<pyguwprgq007>ok whenever youre ready

[06:44]<srmfjumfm>Your_Cool ~ #
[06:46]<srmfjumfm>so wassup?
[06:46]<pyguwprgq007>i'm double checking info on the drivers
[06:47]<pyguwprgq007>it did load succesfully thoough from what pcimodules indicated
[06:48]<srmfjumfm>huh?
[06:49]<srmfjumfm>is it kernel related or driver related?
[06:49]<pyguwprgq007>did you try editing xorg .conf to reflect the dirver being installed?
[06:50]<srmfjumfm>VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia"
[06:50]<srmfjumfm>oh..on the .conf
[06:51]<srmfjumfm>it is using the nv driver at the moment
[06:51]<pyguwprgq007>in the driver part of the card ection it should say driver "nvidia" not "nv"
[06:51]<srmfjumfm>if i put that it crashes
[06:51]<srmfjumfm>with that error
[06:53]<srmfjumfm>or actually says failed to initialize the NVIDIAA kernel module!
[06:53]<pyguwprgq007> Driver "nvidia"
[06:53]<pyguwprgq007> Option "NvAgp" "1"
[06:54]<pyguwprgq007>this is what i use to run my nvidia card
[06:55]<pyguwprgq007>the nvagp set to 1 forces it to use its own agpgart module rather than the kernel module
[06:56]<pyguwprgq007>if i didn't have that option in there my machine locked up whaile loading x
[06:57]<srmfjumfm>hmm
[06:57]<srmfjumfm>if i use the nv it works
[06:57]<srmfjumfm>but the nvidia doesn't
[06:57]<srmfjumfm>shit sucks
[06:58]<pyguwprgq007>that's what had happened to me before i found the NvAgp option
[06:58]<srmfjumfm>those same errors?
[06:58]<srmfjumfm>are you using the nvidia-drivers or the nvidia-glx
[06:58]<srmfjumfm>i'm using the nvidia-glx
[06:59]<pyguwprgq007>nvidia-drivers and glx
[06:59]<srmfjumfm>and?
[06:59]<srmfjumfm>you can install both of them? it gives me a block
[06:59]<srmfjumfm>lemme try the nvidia-drivers
[06:59]<srmfjumfm>i think i get another errror on that one too
[07:00]<pyguwprgq007>I couldn't get any messages due to a hard lockup
[07:01]<srmfjumfm>is it using the nvidia.o or nvidia.ko?
[07:02]<srmfjumfm>what is this ko module?
[07:02]<srmfjumfm>i used to use the nvidia.o and it worked
[07:02]<pyguwprgq007>nvidia.ko in the kernel
[07:02]<srmfjumfm>hmm
[07:03]<pyguwprgq007>I use th glx over opengl
[07:03]<srmfjumfm>ahh
[07:04]<srmfjumfm>the eselect opengl set glx?
[07:04]<pyguwprgq007>yes
[07:07]<srmfjumfm>yo
[07:07]<srmfjumfm>now i get this with the nvidia-drivers
[07:07]<pyguwprgq007>ok
[07:07]<srmfjumfm>NVRM: The NVIDIA probe routine was not called for 1 device(s).
[07:07]<srmfjumfm>NVRM: This can occur when a driver such as rivafb, nvidiafb or
[07:07]<srmfjumfm>NVRM: rivatv was loaded and obtained ownership of the NVIDIA
[07:07]<srmfjumfm>NVRM: device(s).
[07:07]<srmfjumfm>NVRM: Try unloading the rivafb, nvidiafb or rivatv kernel module
[07:07]<srmfjumfm>NVRM: (and/or reconfigure your kernel without rivafb/nvidiafb
[07:07]<srmfjumfm>NVRM: support), then try loading the NVIDIA kernel module again.
[07:07]<srmfjumfm>NVRM: No NVIDIA graphics adapter probed!
[07:08]<srmfjumfm>Your_Cool ~ # modprobe nvidia
[07:08]<srmfjumfm>FATAL: Error inserting nvidia (/lib/modules/2.6.17.6/video/nvidia.ko): No such device
[07:08]<srmfjumfm>bud i didn't add it in my kernel
[07:08]<srmfjumfm>i don't get it
[07:09]<pyguwprgq007>just a moment while i look at my .config
[07:09]<srmfjumfm>aight
[07:09]<srmfjumfm>i'm gonna go get a burrito...i'll be back in a 10 minuts aight
[07:09]<srmfjumfm>thanks for your time man
[07:11]<pyguwprgq007>ok
[07:31]<ccc>y0 linuxfan2006 you got it?
[07:32]<ccc>the .config
[07:33]<pyguwprgq007>run this command to report whether the rivafb and nvidiafb are set: zcat /proc/config.gz | grep CONFIG_FB_NVIDIA && zcat /proc/config.gz | grep CONFIG_FB_RIVA
[07:35]<pyguwprgq007>if they are listed as =m or =y remove them with a kernel recompile
[07:37]<ccc>damnit
[07:39]<pyguwprgq007>you will find the options in Device Drivers -> Graphics support
[07:41]<ccc>well they are not selected
[07:41]<ccc>i don't get it
[07:42]<pyguwprgq007>what is the output?
[07:43]<srmfjumfm>Your_Cool ~ # zcat /proc/config.gz |grep FB
