Question about installing the proprietary nvidia drivers with RPMFusion

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



So I am using the proprietary nvidia drivers for my nvidia 6200 as provided by the RPMfusion distro and kmod. Works fine. However, evidently the nvidia card/system wants to use it's own version of libglx.so, which is located at

/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia/libglx.so

x11 wants to used a libglx.so located at

/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so

Couldn't get glx working unless I created the symlink

/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so-->nvidia/libglx.so

which is cool, although it took me a while to figure it out.

Today I installed a couple of updates to xorg-x11:

xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.6.4-0.1.fc11 Tue 22 Sep 2009 05:33:21 PM PDT xorg-x11-server-common-1.6.4-0.1.fc11 Tue 22 Sep 2009 05:33:20 PM PDT

one of which overwrote my symlink with a new version of libglx.so, and I had to rename it and put in a new symlink.

Am I doing this right?  It seems a little unstable.
