Subject: [gentoo-user] Modular X.org + Nvidia = GLX not loading

1 Hi
2
3 I'm running ~amd64 on some packages and I know this can produce problems ;). I
4 tried the modular X.org a while ago and was surprised about the stability.
5 There was only a issue with missing symlinks for the nvidia drivers.
6 Everything went fine since a few days ago.
7
8 My current versions:
9
10 x11-base/xorg-server-0.99.4-r2 +dri +ipv6 -minimal +xprint
11 media-video/nvidia-kernel-1.0.8174-r1
12 media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.8174-r1 -dlloader
13
14 X.org gives me the following error message on startup:
15
16 (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the GLX module; please check in your X
17 (EE) NVIDIA(0): log file that the GLX module has been loaded in your X
18 (EE) NVIDIA(0): server, and that the module is the NVIDIA GLX module. If
19 (EE) NVIDIA(0): you continue to encounter problems, Please try
20 (EE) NVIDIA(0): reinstalling the NVIDIA driver.
21
22 I don't know where I can get some more informative error messages. A few lines
23 above I can see that the glx-module was loaded:
24
25 (II) LoadModule: "glx"
26 (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so
27 (II) Module glx: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
28 compiled for 6.99.99.903, module version = 1.0.0
29 ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.2
30
31 I checked the timestamp on this library. It matches the last emerge of
32 xorg-server on 6th decembre. Now I'm a little bit confused. The libglx.so is
33 provied by xorg-server and nvidia-glx too:
34
35 # equery b libglx.so
36 [ Searching for file(s) libglx.so in *... ]
37 media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.8174-r1
38 (/usr/lib64/opengl/nvidia/extensions/libglx.so)
39 x11-base/xorg-server-0.99.4-r2 (/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so)
40
41 Is it correct that X.org loads the one from xorg-server? Is there some mistake
42 in my configuration? I attached the Xorg.0.log and xorg.conf.
43
44 It seems I'm the only one who is encountering this problem, I didn't find
45 anything on forums.gentoo.org, bugs.gentoo.org and the mailing-lists...
46
47 Thanks for any help!
