Direct Rendering: No with mandriva LE 2005

[z980x]

Hello !

I have already read a lot of things about this problem, but I can't resolve it...

I installed the Nvidia Drivers (8178) with a script, and it seems to work fine, but when I type
[code][glxinfo | grep "direct rendering" /CODE]
I have this:

direct rendering: No

In my xorg.conf file, I have this:

   1.
      Section "Module"
         Load "glx" # 3D layer
         Load "dri"
         Load "dbe" # Double-Buffering Extension
         Load "v4l" # Video for Linux
         Load "extmod"
         Load "type1"
         Load "freetype"
      EndSection

and

   1.
      Section "Device"
         Identifier "device1"
         VendorName "nVidia Corp."
         BoardName "NVIDIA GeForce FX (generic)"
         Driver "nvidia"
         Option "DPMS"
         Option "NoLogo" "1"
         Option "RenderAccel" "1"
         Option "NvAGP" "3"
         Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "1"
      EndSection

when I type

grep -i AGP /boot/config

in the console, I obtain this:

      [philippe@localhost ~]$ grep -i AGP /boot/config
      CONFIG_AGP=m
      CONFIG_AGP_ALI=m
      CONFIG_AGP_ATI=m
      CONFIG_AGP_AMD=m
      CONFIG_AGP_AMD64=m
      CONFIG_AGP_INTEL=m
      CONFIG_AGP_INTEL_MCH=m
      CONFIG_AGP_NVIDIA=m
      CONFIG_AGP_SIS=m
      CONFIG_AGP_SWORKS=m
      CONFIG_AGP_VIA=m
      CONFIG_AGP_EFFICEON=m

I added the line nvidia-agp in modprobe.preload, because I obtain this:

      [root@localhost philippe]# modprobe -lt char | grep agp
      /lib/modules/2.6.11-6mdksmp/kernel/drivers/char/agp/via-agp.ko.gz
      /lib/modules/2.6.11-6mdksmp/kernel/drivers/char/agp/sworks-agp.ko.gz
      /lib/modules/2.6.11-6mdksmp/kernel/drivers/char/agp/sis-agp.ko.gz
      /lib/modules/2.6.11-6mdksmp/kernel/drivers/char/agp/nvidia-agp.ko.gz
      /lib/modules/2.6.11-6mdksmp/kernel/drivers/char/agp/intel-agp.ko.gz
      /lib/modules/2.6.11-6mdksmp/kernel/drivers/char/agp/intel-mch-agp.ko.gz
      /lib/modules/2.6.11-6mdksmp/kernel/drivers/char/agp/ati-agp.ko.gz
      /lib/modules/2.6.11-6mdksmp/kernel/drivers/char/agp/amd64-agp.ko.gz
      /lib/modules/2.6.11-6mdksmp/kernel/drivers/char/agp/efficeon-agp.ko.gz
      /lib/modules/2.6.11-6mdksmp/kernel/drivers/char/agp/ali-agp.ko.gz
      /lib/modules/2.6.11-6mdksmp/kernel/drivers/char/agp/agpgart.ko.gz
      /lib/modules/2.6.11-6mdksmp/kernel/drivers/char/agp/amd-k7-agp.ko.gz

I commented the other lines, so I have only nvidia-agp line in my modprobe.preload file...

I added this line too:
alias /dev/nvidia* nvidia in /etc/modprobe.conf

so, I don't know what to do... I still have "Direct Rendering: No" and games are not smooth...

Thanks

Philippe

PS: Sorry for my english... (Only 18, so it's not perfect... loooool)

   1.
      Section "Module"
         Load "glx" # 3D layer
         Load "dri"
         Load "dbe" # Double-Buffering Extension
         Load "v4l" # Video for Linux
         Load "extmod"
         Load "type1"
         Load "freetype"
      EndSection

nvidia's drivers don't use the DRI infrastructure for 3d
you should comment out the 'Load "dri" '-line

Hope that helps

Cheers

I commented this line, but nothing changed...
Thanks anyway.

Please generate and attach an nvidia-bug-report.log file (please also see http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=46678).

[z980x]

I can't send you a log file, because there isn't any problem, except that I don't have direct rendering, and that 3D performances are bad...

[netllama]

If you don't have direct rendering then you do have a problem. If you'd like further assistance with this issue, please generate the bug report that was requested. Without the bug report, there's nothing further than anyone can do to assist you.

Thanks,

I don't see anything in the bug report that indicates a problem. If you install 1.0-8178, does the problem persist?

Thanks,
