Problems with compiz-fusion and nvidia
Hey.
My card is Geforce 8600GTS.
I have problems with the graphics.
First of all, there's no xorg.conf file.
I've installed the nvidia unofficial drivers, but I don't know what now...

Code:
[root@localhost ~]# glxinfo | grep direct
Error: glXCreateContext failed
Help?

Is there any tool that can generate a xorg.conf file for me?

(Fedora 10 of course)

you can create an xorg.conf using
Code:
# Xorg -configure
i recommend to install the nvidia drivers from http://rpmfusion.org/:
Code:
# yum install [a]kmod-nvidia

try enabling/disabling compiz a few times, sometimes it doesn't work correctly.
if thats no use, try in a terminal
Code:
$ gnome-wm
that should restart the window manager.

Try reversing the changes made to xorg.conf and then try starting X .
You could use nano to edit if X isn't working.

Code:
nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

As far as I can see, no errors on boot now.
But still, I can't get compiz work right.
Maybe I didn't create the xorg.conf right? or i didn't installed compiz right?
What should I do?
Thanks

setup your displays settings and save to X configuration file.
