Purchased a new nVidia GeForce3 card and installed it in a Red Hat 7.2 system. The ultimate goal was to
get an app that uses openGL to send its Display there. Well it doesn't work. Everytime I try to send the
display there I get a message:
X Error of failes request: GLXUnsupportedPrivateRequest
Major opcode of failed request: 129 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 17 (X_GLXVendorPrivateWithReply)
Serial Number of failed request: 17
Current serial number in output stream: 17
Local OpenGL apps would run fine. I was sure I installed all the nVidia drivers fine. So I went searching.
www.nvnews.net gave me a possible fix:"by adding the -ac option to Xservers file". Well I looked at the
man page for Xservers and figured I would give it a try. I thought I added the -ac option to the appropriate
place in the /etc/X11/prefdm file but I keep getting the same results.
I am by far no guru on X and all its various options. Can someone please tell me whereI should add this -
ac option to so that the Xserver will start using the -ac option.
Regards,
Jeff
