| SUSEhelp | To install the nVidia drivers, see http://en.opensuse.org/NVIDIA --- For manual installation check: http://www.suse.de/~sndirsch/nvidia-installer-HOWTO.html The driver is here: http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html |
| ronaldo_ | or you want that I execute " sax2 -r -m 0=nvidia" ? |
| boris55 | I was wonder if you took down your resoluition if that would make a difference |
| ronaldo_ | what happens when I press ctrl alt F2? It change to higher resolution? So, should I change the 1280x1024 (SXGA) to a small resolution? |
| ykphuah | !packman |
| SUSEhelp | ykphuah: Error reading from specified site |
| boris55 | smaller, that's what I would do but i'm not sure what to do after this point. |

| ronaldo_ | Ok. I'll try this. 1024x768 (SXGA). |
| yahoo | bye all |
| ronaldo_ | but here the only option to 1024x768 is with XGA only. not SXGA. Is there some problem with this? |
| boris55 | that's fine |
| ykphuah | anyone using 10.3 alpha? it supposeldy have the latest and greatest kernel and programs? |
| kkathman | nope I make it a point to NOT try alpha software :) |
| ronaldo_ | the strange behavier is that when I try ctrl alt F2 or ctrl alt F4, the system became paralised for some time. |
| Cpudan80 | ronaldo_: Just read that NVidia page |
| ronaldo_ | the caps lock doesn't work. |
| Cpudan80 | The F-Keys switch you into different modes |
| ronaldo_ | after some seconds. I can type ctrl alt and F7 and the screen returns. |
| Cpudan80 | CTRL-F1...F6 goes to a terminal I think F7 is the first X session F8 is the second - etc |
| ronaldo_ | ok, thank you. |
| Cpudan80 | it should flicker for a sec - then go to a prompt If you just do what the !nvidia link says - you'll be fine Assuming you dont have to manually put together the driver (the hard way) That can be a little trickier |
| boris55 | how does one create more than one x session? |
| ronaldo_ | flicker is the same as freese? |
| Cpudan80 | boris55: If someone else walks up while your screen is suspended and hits "new login" - that would do it You can do it via applications --> system --> remote access in GNOME |
