fx5500 NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-1.0-9746

[johnny_blaze]

after installating the NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-1.0-9746 driver i've encountered a problem: X server does't start, even sax2 doesn't start... my specs are: opensuse 10.2 x86_64 (2.6.18.2-34-default) i've tried using both: yast and recompiling kernel (with help of nvidia x.org.conf modifier) both gave me the same... also i tried using some older drivers (7676, 8774) with no effect.
i attached my sax.log, xorg.log and nvidia-installer.log

thanks for any help.

The only thing I'm seeing in your bug report is:
NVRM: RmInitAdapter failed! (0x25:0xffffffff:1011)
NVRM: rm_init_adapter(0) failed
NVRM: RmInitAdapter failed! (0x23:0xffffffff:679)
NVRM: rm_init_adapter(0) failed

Have you verified that you're using the latest motherboard BIOS?

Thanks,
Lonni

yes, i'm using the most recent bios F19 (gigabyte ga-k8ns motherboard). there was no change after flashing the bios.
sax still reports me:

After heaps of searching this is what got it working for me

Gigabyte ga-k8ns MB with Nvidia FX5200

adding to xorg.conf

in
Section "Device"

the following
Option "NvAGP" "2"

Nvidia splash screen loads also

configuration using latest Nvidia driver 100.14.09 for Linux AMD64/EM64T with openSUSE 10.2
