Hey Y'all,
After upgrade to 6.6 my gui will not start. The problem is probably related to the dusty old video card I've got in this crusty old machine.
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G73 [GeForce 7600 GS] (rev a2)
I've got the proprietary drivers installed. Normally when I update my kernel the video module is rebuilt automagically. That probably doesn't work with the new kernel.
I can get the GUI running by booting into the previous kernel version.
Does anyone know what repository and package name I need to update the driver for 6.6?
Okay, I erased kmod-nvidia-304xx and nvidia-x11-drv-304xx
I booted into the new kernel and reinstalled kmod-nvidia-304xx and nvidia-x11-drv-304xx.
After a reboot still no joy.
The Xorg.0.log says:
[ 57.575] (EE) NVIDIA: Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module. Please check your [ 57.575] (EE) NVIDIA: system's kernel log for additional error messages.
Where do I find said kernel log?
