Did you not find any errors in the log file (/var/log/Xorg.0.log)? An error
is highlighted by a line starting with: (EE)
I've never used Atrpms. I can't comment.
Below is the procedure I follow.
Hope this helps,
Michael
--------------
* Execute the following command :
# sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-X.X-XXXX-pkgX.run
Choose to replace the existing driver.
Choose not to download precompiled header files and then build kernel.
Choose OK for the rest (I believe that's it; if there are other questions,
they should be self-evident).
* Edit the X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' file by doing the following:
-In the Module section, make sure you have the following line:
Load "glx"
-In the Module section, remove the following lines:
Load "dri"
Load "GLcore"
-In the appropriate device section (the one for video cards),
replace the line:
Driver "nv" (orDriver "vesa")
With:
Driver "nvidia"
-In the same device section, you can also update the VendorName and
BoardName
- In the same device section, add the following line:
Option "NoLogo" (optional to not show nvidia Logo at X
startup)
- In the Monitor section, replace the lines:
HorizSync 31.5 - 37.9
VertRefresh 50.0 - 70.0
With what is appropriate for your monitor
- In the Screen section, Display subsection, replace the line:
Modes "640x480"
With what is appropriate for your monitor
(e.g.: Modes "1024x768" "640x480")
