[arch-general] Problem with compositing and openGL.
Hello everyone. Well I have problem with my 64 bit system. I have Nvidia 8400GS card with driver installed and enabled (it means that I get glxinfo and glxgears output), but compositing or any 3D games don't work (some openGL error). But at the same time I gan run simple 3D applications like glxgears. Also Nvidia driver starts correctly on startup (logo comes up) and compositing is enabled in xorg.conf. So any ideas on my problem? Might it be a 64 bit system issue? Just to add, under Ubuntu compiz and games worked just fine. Thanks, Verner.
Just a shot in the dark. Is direct rendering on? glxinfo | grep rendering Note : You can still run glxgears without 3d rendering. Could you give more information on the error please. Cheers Didi On Thu, Mar 6, 2008 at 4:49 PM, Verner Jänes <phisphere@gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks for answering, Didi. Well, I'm not on my computer right now, but I'm quite sure, that direct rendering is on. My real question is, might it be issue with 64 bit system? Should I'll try to install i686 and try to get it working there or it doesn't matter at all? Didi wrote:
