Hello,
Sorry this is not strictly Fedora package, but I was hoping someone could
help.
I have NVidia Ge Force FX 5500. I use the proprietary NVidia driver to get 3D
acceleration. However, I get glitches, a lot of them, especially when playing
movie is the most noticeable. Sometime the screen locks up too. Checking the
kernel log, I see this:
Feb 4 07:45:10 defiant kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 13, 0002 beef3097 00003497

Has anyone seen this ? I tried the Kmod and AKmod way of installing the driver
from rpmfusion and both give me the problem. Furthermore, when booting, I see
a message something like "Segmentation fault on /etc/rc.d/init.d/function line
439" when enabling something related to Nvidia.
There are lots of discussions about NVRM bug on Nvidia forum and on the
Internet, but I can't see anything conclusive and I can't figure out yet what I
need to do to fix this.
Thanks for any help.
