I am using RedHat7.3
My computer is Intel pentium1.6GA MHz
Geforce 2 Ti
512MB
But when i use my linux, it doesn't run really smooth.....
For example, when i play the "Chromium" this
game, i can tell that i really cannot play!!
because i nearly cannot move....it feels like a 486 computer have installed WinXP inside...
Can you imagine?
So any one can tell me how i should set my linux work more smooth and what shall i do?
Are you dual booting? What else are you running? etc.
chromium requires 3d graphics. without it, its framerate is near 1.
Yes i am dual boot
I install WinXP and Linux
I am using GRUB for boot...
But my graphic card is Geforece2 Ti 64mb
how come not 3d graphic?
Can anyone tell me how to solve?
I'm not sure about RH, but I remember on my SuSE install somehting about a separate kernel module for nVidia support. Have you patched?
nVidia Support?
Where i can find it?
i don't think i have patched it yet...
can you tell me where i can download?
Or any more solutions for me?
Nvidia's website would be the first place to check for any driver support.
You are gonna want to go here.
HELP!!!
I am in WinXP now!!
cannot go back to Linux....
~.~
please help me...
I went to the nVidia website and download
NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-3123.i386.rpm
NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-3123.rh73up_2.4.18_10.i386.rpm
The RedHat 7.3 updated to 2.4.18-10 UP i386 Architecture ones...
then i type in my Linux:
rpm -ivh NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-3123.i386.rpm NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-3123.rh73up_2.4.18_10.i386.rpm
then it installed in my linux...
after that, i restart my computer
then when it load in to Xwindow...

please help me.........
Now is nearly mid night in my country~
and school tomorrow,
so i gotta sleep .....i hope i can read some solution later...
thanx all of you guys!!!
please help~~~~
Well if you want to go back to software accel and try again login as root in a text mode console and type yast, or whatever tool redhat uses, and unload the modules. Then you can try again.
Type yast ? <- what is this command?
And how to unload the modules?
I don't really understand how to do it....
Can you tell me in more details?
yast is Yet Another Setup Tool. just type it in as root. I think it is the setup prog that redhat uses.
That or try sax, and uncheck the use 3d acceleration. In fact, try sax first, as it is simpler.
when i type yast
the bash says it's not a command....
i am going to try the other one later...
thanx for you help!
Reply you back later@.@
sax and yast ....
the bash says it's not a command....
what can i do now???
..........and how to change language setting in text mode?
Please help me.....I cannot do my homework now...
so sad....
Really? Neither sax or yast work?
Try it explicitly:
/usr/X11R6/bin/SaX2
See if that helps.
Yast && sax only work on Suse Distros.
For RedHat run
Xconfigurator
or
xf86config
or
XF86Setup -configure
or manually edit the XF86Config file.
Really? I seem to recall using SaX on my old Mandrake box. Although that was only vaguely Mandrake anyway. Mostly just collected.
Is it just chromium that is giving you trouble? Or was your system slow in general? Could have been a computer virus. Did you have Apache installed?
He installed the NVidia drivers without editting the XF86Config-4 file in /etc/X11. Installing the nvidia drivers (which provide very nice 3d hardware acceleration) gets rid of the old drivers from the XFree86 group (which work fine for 2d, but have no 3d acceleration).
Do what it says here. The most import thing is to replace the "nv" (Old unnaccelerated driver from XFree86) to "nvidia" which is your new driver.
