Re: [Bug 771788] Re: nVidia driver activated and apparently being used but reported as not being used by jockey-gtk

 

hi Allessandro,


yep, I have 3D-effect running on my machine. But what is not working  
properly for me is the Gnome3-desktop. Nautilus crashes when
klicking the icon in the dock. But what is strange to me is, that I can  
open nautlus through Atl+F2 and gksu nautilus. That means,
I can only open Nautilus as root. But what I want to know: why is that??

And hwat also is strange to me: when I want to logg into the normal  
Gnome2-desktop, I get the error-message: failed to load "Gnome-
Classic" session. I also don't know, why that is. I am still looking for  
figuring that out.

But for comeing back to the proprietary driver: yep, for me this driver  
works fine and also film-videos have cool 3D-effects now.
you will find out if this works, if you follow the instructions shown in  
the links, I posted in my previous comments and also I do
not experience any emergency-shutdown anymore, since I use nvidia-current.  
Also the overheating-problems are gone since I use this
driver since a few weeks now.

I am really happy with this new nvidia-driver. And as I said: the  
proprietary ones are the resue for the nvidia-graphic-cards because
the opensource one (nouveau-driver) would have killed my GPU and my  
graphiccard. If I had continued useing the opensource-one, my GPU
would have died within two or three weeks.

Greetings
Linuxexperte

Also gaming is no problem anymore.
