rethat下安装nvidia 显卡驱动问题解决方法

1.下载： http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux.html

2.安装：nvidia驱动安装有一点很重要一定要在纯字符界面下。一般你可以init 3（rh系统的runlevel设置）等级进入系统或者已经登录图形的情况下，在字符界面运行 init 3 命令。    然后给下载的它加上执行权

#chmod a+x NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6629-pkg1.run
--运行安装程序
#sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6629-pkg1.run


--安装出错

WARNING: You do not appear to have an NVIDIA GPU supported by the 1.0-8776
         NVIDIA Linux graphics driver installed in this system.  For further
         details, please see the appendix SUPPORTED NVIDIA GRAPHICS CHIPS in

ERROR: Unable to load the kernel module 'nvidia.o'.  This happens most
       frequently when this kernel module was built against the wrong or
       improperly configured kernel sources, with a version of gcc that differs
       from the one used to build the target kernel, or if a driver such as
       rivafb/nvidiafb is present and prevents the NVIDIA kernel module from
       obtaining ownership of the NVIDIA graphics device(s).

       messages' at the end of the file '/var/log/nvidia-installer.log' for

--安装时出错原因


目前nvidia 驱动主持2.4和2.6 内核，debian/fedora 用户安装驱动时注意安装 kernel－headers。
      


解决方法有如下三种：优先顺序3->2->1

===========================================================================================
 
方法1:

1.运行下面的命令来获得它的源码

#sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2.run --extract-only

2.设置环境变量

#eXPort IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH=yes

3.进入源码文件夹，运行安装命令

#cd ../NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2

#make install

4.修改/etc/X11/XF86Config

然后改/etc/X11/XF86Config文件中的这段。
将显卡配置段 Driver "nv" (or Driver "vesa") 改为Driver "nvidia"  ，在Module 部分
加上
        Load   "glx" ;
去掉  
        Load  "dri"
        Load  "GLcore"

===========================================================================================

方法2:
export CC=gcc32
sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2.run

===========================================================================================

方法3:
./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2.run --add-this-kernel
