I updated to xorg-server-1.20.3 yesterday & ran into trouble. |
2 |
It wanted to update to nvidia-drivers-396.54 , |
3 |
which doesn't support my graphics card ( Asus GT610 : bought 150914 ) : |
4 |
there was an error msg in Xorg.0.log to this effect. |
5 |
I tried 390.67 (which I had been using before yesterday) |
6 |
& updating to 390.87 , but got errors with the latter |
7 |
"failed to initialise kernel module" (Xorg) |
8 |
& "nvidia : unknown symbol backlight_device_register" (kernel) ; |
9 |
390.67 won't emerge with xorg-server-1.20.3 . |
10 |
|
11 |
So I'm back using Nouveau, which seems to work adequately for most things, |
12 |
but won't run 3D screensavers. |
13 |
|
14 |
Perhaps I should buy a more upto-date graphics card. |
15 |
|
16 |
Does anyone have comments or suggestions ? |
