Re: [gentoo-user] OT - GLSlideshow and nvidia (I think)

What does your /var/log/Xorg.0.log read?
Does it actually load the glx extension or fail for
some reason?

Also, double check that you are using the opengl
use-flag. I think it enables mesa since your video
card doesn;t support גרן.

Good luck
