Nvidia driver - Debian way, custom (or not) kernel.
I followed the method which have mentioned in the first topic and now nvidia support is working ok but many opengl games are very slow and glxgears gives me low fps numbers
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Code: Select all
$ glxgears
1345 frames in 5.7 seconds = 234.673 FPS
562 frames in 5.6 seconds = 100.933 FPS
712 frames in 6.9 seconds = 103.724 FPS
661 frames in 5.3 seconds = 123.842 FPS
906 frames in 7.4 seconds = 122.698 FPS
722 frames in 5.4 seconds = 134.650 FPS
622 frames in 5.2 seconds = 120.659 FPS
811 frames in 5.0 seconds = 162.034 FPS
952 frames in 5.8 seconds = 164.088 FPS
601 frames in 5.3 seconds = 114.419 FPS
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
I was getting a similar, albeit far worse, result. I was lucky to get 60FPS. Far lower than what my system can do. Anyways, I just restarted my machine and it seemed to fix itself.paul555 wrote:I followed the method which have mentioned in the first topic and now nvidia support is working ok but many opengl games are very slow and glxgears gives me low fps numbersDoes anyone know how to fix this?Code: Select all

UPDATE
I found this post: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions ... lx-452126/
And looking in /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers the file nvidia_drv.o exists but I don't have nvidia_drv.so
Help! I am completely new to installing nvidia drivers (using kernel 2.6.22.2-686 if that helps.)
Hi rob33n.
Can you please provide more details.
I have exactly the same problem, but cannot seem to find how to fix it.
I followed the install guide here: http://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers without any errors, yet on boot, it fails to load the nvidia module.

Try probing the driver manually and post the output here.denham2010 wrote: yet on boot, it fails to load the nvidia module.

Hi.
I'm a complete n00b at Debian (recently arrived form Ubuntu ) and I'm having a problem witch may be kind of stupid.
When I try to run the first line of the tutorial I get this:
Do I need to update anything at /etc/apt/sources.list?
Thanks and sorry again if this is an Idiot question.
By the way, my graphic is a NVIDIA 8600 GT.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
nvidia-glx: Depends: nvidia-kernel-100.14.19 but it is not installable
The strangest thing is that I installed once already...
