May I add #7. 7. /usr/bin/X11/x11perf -all > /tmp/x11perf-out-nvidia Things 1-6 work fine for me. Number 7 dumps core both for the nvidia driver and the nv driver. The nvidia driver crashed the Xserver. An old SiS300 based PCI card did run this test to competion. When running the nvidia driver the last line in the log file was: 2800 reps @ 1.8933 msec ( 528.0/sec): ShmPutImage XY 100x100 square "lspci" tells me ....nVidia Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX 440 AGP 8x] (rev a2) I am using my 'safe' XF86Config from my RH9 box with an older nVidia card that does fine with x11perf: ....nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 MX/MX 400] (rev b2) I will look to see if I missed anything in the sample XF86Config files. I noted that /usr/bin/redhat-config-xfree86 had trouble on Fedora. Anyhow can other nVidia card holders with time please run: /usr/bin/X11/x11perf -all and validate that I am alone or in a crowd on this.
