Re: issue number 20120415_223852

 

Hey

My bad.
Its playonlinux I have to start, not wine.
starting using "optirun playonlinux" results in playonlinux error message "no 3d accelaration", but the game works graphically fine.
Maybe some optirun - playonlinux disfunction?

Regards
Florian

Hi Florian,

You must have made a mistake. I've added the next line to sources.list:
deb http://backports.debian.org/debian-backports squeeze-backports main contrib non-free

Then, when executing:
sudo apt-get install -t squeeze-backports nvidia-glx linux-headers-$(uname -r) nvidia-kernel-dkms -V
I get:
...
   nvidia-alternative (280.13.really.275.36-1~bpo60+2)

Please re-check your installations steps.

    Hey Lekensteyn

    Thanks for your fast answer.
    There is no possible to choose mesa with those three commands:

    root@smurflaptop:/home/smurf# update-alternatives --config libglx.so
    Es gibt 2 Auswahlmöglichkeiten für die Alternative libglx.so
    (welche /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so bereitstellen).

     Auswahl      Pfad                                  Priorität Status
    ------------------------------------------------------------
* 0 /usr/lib/nvidia/libglx.so 42 Auto-Modus 1 /usr/lib/nvidia/diversions/libglx.so 5 manueller Modus 2 /usr/lib/nvidia/libglx.so 42 manueller Modus

    Drücken Sie die Eingabetaste, um die aktuelle Wahl[*] beizubehalten,
    oder geben Sie die Auswahlnummer ein:
    root@smurflaptop:/home/smurf# update-alternatives --config libGL.so
    Es gibt nur eine Alternative in Link-Gruppe libGL.so:
    /usr/lib/nvidia/diversions/libGL.so
    Nichts zu konfigurieren.
    root@smurflaptop:/home/smurf# update-alternatives --config
    ia32-libGL.so
    update-alternatives: Fehler: Keine Alternativen für ia32-libGL.so.

    Maybe there are just a few packages missing?

    The driver thing confuses me a bit.
    I just checked, but I did everything exactly as described on this
    page (http://wiki.debian.org/Bumblebee).
    This means I installed nvidia-glx, nvidia-lernel-dkms.
    Backports, non-free and contrib soruces are in my sources list
    (did with http://debgen.simplylinux.ch/).
    And ran the command: apt-get install -t squeeze-backports
    nvidia-glx linux-headers-$(uname -r) nvidia-kernel-dkms - as root.
    Just tried doing it again results in the message "nvidia-glx is
    newest version and nvidia-kernel-dkms is newest version, nothing
    to change".
    If you want to contact me via icq feel free to add 219213712.

    Best regards
    Florian Vieten
