Re: Fwd: Re: Prime-NG v.2.0 released.. now with automated installer and 3D support on both Intel and nVidia

 

Hi,

thank you for your work, but it would be nice to have 32 bit support, and apt-get used instead of aptitude, as apt-get is default in Ubuntu.

Hi...

Try with optirun64 -d :1 glxgears...

If that works, you might have some remains in your private ~/.bashrc
from my ealier releases... there should be no VGL_* in your private
bashrc anymore..

Let me know how it goes..

I have a dell xps l501x and this solution doesn't work for me.
I use the automated bash installation script. When i run an application
with the following:

optirun64 glxgears

all i obtain is this error message:
Coul not open display :0.1

If i launch glxgear normally or with the -d 0.0 option i get this:

root@phoboshome/snowpunk# optirun64 -d :0.0 glxgears
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[VGL] WARNING: VirtualGL attempted and failed to obtain a
Pbuffer-enabled
[VGL] 24-bit visual on the 3D X server :0.0. If the application
[VGL] subsequently fails, then make sure that the 3D X server is
configured
[VGL] for 24-bit color and has accelerated 3D drivers installed.
Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual

Another strange issue when i launch the bash script, it first install
nvidia-current modules and after it remove the same. It is normal?

Howewer good job Martin !
ps i'm free for testing and develop if is needed.

Hello Martin,
I tested the install script.
As I wrote an application in python to tune kubuntu after a fresh
install I
have some questions/suggestions:

* Why do you install xdm?
* You copuld determine the systems manufactoring name with the command
sudo dmidecode | grep Product

Product Name: 07JC8T
Product Name: Vostro 3300

Which returns more than one value that you could check against the
known
types.

* After a fresh installation package installation lists and aptitude
are not
available:
you could work around this with: sudo apt-get update&& sudo apt-get
install
aptitude

* After a question the autostart service could be added automatically:
echo 'vglclient -gl'> /usr/bin/vglclient-service
chmod -x /usr/bin/vglclient-service
if [ -d $HOME/.kde/Autostart ]; then
ln -s /usr/bin/vglclient-service $HOME/.kde/Autostartvglclient-service
fi

... and maybe simelar to gnome and xdm.
There might be a problem when script is run as root to get the right
home
directory.

* Is there a special reason why the license is not GLP in
conjunction/addition
with the BEER-WARE license (I like that one)?

I think about adding an installer for your software to my program as
well if
it's alright with you.

Hope it helps.

Hi..

As I have written to Dave, I will find a new name as quickly as
possible
and move the project as I see your point...

Ubuntu 11.04 is using the 270.* nVidia driver.. but I dont think the
version really matters.. let me know if you need some more info...

Hi all...

The subject says the most:

Prime-NG v.2.0 released.. now with automated installer and 3D
support
on both Intel and nVidia..



Please don't call anything Prime-NG, prime is a project to enable
buffer sharing,

your system isn't a next generation of it, its a neat hack and all,
but its still a hack at the end of the day.

Dave.



I agree to this. Is a big contribution indeed, but is not the end of
this. Please consider anothe name. If you want to make an
impression use
MJ-something. But don't use Prime name cos is not the same idea.

I'll try to rewrite the script (because is for debian distros only) or
follow it to my archlinux system. Could you please tell us wich driver
package version has nvidia-current? The package system is a little
different in some distros and probably i have to compile/package
most of
the code.
