Hi,

Recently, whenever I launched a video with totem, my screen would go
black and I'd end up back at the FC17 login screen. I was using the
akmod-nvidia and kmod-nvidia drivers. I switched over to VLC as my
default video player and the problem seemed to be solved; however, It's
now doing the same thing whenever I try to launch google chrome. The
screen goes black and I end up back at the login screen. It does it in
both KDE and XFCE. Has anybody else seen this?

You might find in your Xorg.0.log that it complains it couldn't load GLX

I had this too, I just had to make sure these lines were in my xorg.conf

Section "Files"
     FontPath        "/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1"
     ModulePath   "/usr/lib64/nvidia/xorg"
     ModulePath   "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules"
EndSection

you might find these lines in it, and for some reason it loads the GLX
driver....

ModulePath      "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia"
ModulePath      "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers"
ModulePath      "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules"

Hi,

Would that be 00-nvidia.conf by any chance? It contained the correct lines minus the font line, which I added to no avail.

xorg.conf itself only contains these lines:

# RPM Fusion - nvidia-xorg.conf
#
Section "Device"
	Identifier  "Videocard0"
	Driver      "nvidia"
EndSection

Here's a pastebin link to my Xorg.0.log:

Thanks!
