    Graphic Driver screwed on Fedora 9 64 bit

    I can't seem to run anymore 3D accelerated applications.

    This is my xorg config:

    # Xorg configuration created by system-config-display

    When I type glxinfo | grep direct, I get:

    Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

    glxgears gave:

    Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual




    Does anyone know what's wrong ?

    Try changing the files section to


    Code:
    Section "Files"
    	ModulePath   "/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia"
    	ModulePath   "/usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers"
    	ModulePath   "/usr/lib/xorg/modules"
    EndSection

    and the Extensions section to


    Code:
    Section "Extensions"
    	Option	    "Composite" "Enable"
    EndSection

    Uh. . .that screwed it up even worse Leigh.

    I wasn't even able to start X after those changes. I got these errors (simplified by me).


    dlopen: libGLCore.so.1:no such file or directory.

    Failed to load: libglx.so
    Failed to load module: "glx" (loader failed 7)
    Failed to load module: "freetype"
    Failed to load module: "dri"
    Failed to load module: "kdb"
    Failed to load module: "mouse"
    Failed to load module: "fb"

    Well, changing the modules section to:

    Section "Files"
    ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia"
    ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers"
    ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules"
    EndSection

    Gave me a UI back, but ist still has that missing GLX problem. = /

    Sorry I gave the 32 bit paths .

    What nvidia driver are you using ( where did you get it ? )

    I installed kmod-nvidia driver using:

    yum install kmod-nvidia

    (I think it got it from Livna).

    Leigh, do you use Gmail, MSN or IRC ?

    I'm on the Fedora IRC, or I use gmail/msn.

    I'm having the same issue to. There was an update, silly me for not looking into the details before doing it, and now my nVidia 3-D support is gone. I run "glxinfo" and I get this:
    Code:
    name of display: :0.0
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    Segmentation fault
    I tried uninstalling kmod and reinstalling it to see if anything would change.

    Well. . some of the Fedora guys on the IRC have gave me some help.

    It's half work now. I got glxgears and direct rendering says yes.

    However. . I'm only getting 283 FPS

    I should be getting 10 000 to 20 000 FPS.

    How do I get my FPS back ?

    The Fedora guys on IRC reckons it's a bug. . .told me to file one to bugzilla rpmfusion.

    We'll see how it goes = /
