If you need X only for testing, use a simpler driver: xf86-video-vesa xf86-video-nv xf86-video-nouveau (probably won't work with an older kernel)
Thanks, The nv module works fine. The only issue is that X will not autoconfigure to use it, so you must create a minimal xorg.conf telling X to use the nv driver. Then it works like a champ. Thankfully, the only thing required was to: cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.nvida edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change Driver "nvidia" to Driver "nv" and remove any nvidia specific options like "option coolbits = 1". The restarting kdm did the trick. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
