Good afternoon, everyone! |
| 2 |
I'm sorry to open such a thread again, but I found 2 topics regarding this issue |
| 3 |
here. It appears that one of them ("remove xorg-server to emerge nvidia-glx |
| 4 |
<=Normal?") had a solution but it was posted on a site |
| 5 |
(http://rafb.net/paste/results/HPsvCD94.html) which deletes the messages a few days |
| 6 |
after they are published. |

So let me get to the point. |

|
| 10 |
System: |
| 11 |
Athlon-XP 1700+ CPU, Epox mobo with NForce chipset and Nvidia GeForce4 MX440 |
| 12 |
Graphics card. |
| 13 |
Arch = "x86" |
| 14 |
X Window System Version 6.8.2 |
| 15 |
Release Date: 9 February 2005 |
| 16 |
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.8.2 |
| 17 |
Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.16-ck12 i686 [ELF] |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Purpose: |
| 20 |
I want to upgrade my X so I would be able to run Xgl & Compiz. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Tried so far: |
| 23 |
I believe 7.0.* is the right version for my case. I've tried to put the mask shown |
| 24 |
on the official Gentoo site about "migrating to mudular X". Unfortunately for me |
| 25 |
that mask pulls version 7.1. Then I put "<=7.1" in package.mask which led to lots of |
| 26 |
unresolved deps. After playing with masks & versions the whole weekend I gave up ;-( |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Please, help me start running Xgl & Compiz on system with GeForce video. |
