<0> hey all
<1> what's the current midrange nvidia chipset
<2> re
<3> anyone?
<1> not really
<1> i asked half an hour ago, nothing
<4> how do i go about getting xv acceleration?
<4> with binary nvidia driver
<5> can some one point me to some docs about how to create a deb package out of NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8762-pkg1.run, i have the kernel source + build tools
<6> timalot: sounds like fun, I just need to get 7182 drivers for X installed :P
<7> anyone know why I'm getting unable to get EDID for crt-0 blabla
<5> yeah for some reason i decided to compile my own kernel, now i need to configure their binary driver ... and i dont want to use their installer
<5> ill guess ill just use nv... until i get my head around deb packaging.... laters
<6> I use their installer and it all worked til I tried to load X, then it was driver missmatch
<8> Dude
<6> ?
<8> K let's be like.
<8> Alright.. I have a PNY 6800GT
<8> And like.. It idles at 82C
<8> Between 74C and 82C
<8> Ideas?
<9> fan's full of dust?
<8> Naw I clean the box regularly enough, and post-cleaning doesn't help it
<9> card's at stock speeds?
<8> Yeah
<8> Maybe it's just a bad card, it's too old to be under warranty
<8> I'm trying to think if I've always had this problem, I know I've had it since last summer
<9> temps ok with everything else?
<8> Absolutely super-duper
<9> yes, my temps are nasty during the summer months
<8> In the winter it goes down to the mid-60s
<8> But that's still pretty excessive for idling
<9> are you crashing, hanging or artifacting?
<8> During games, but I haven't gamed in a month or two
<8> It gets very hot while playing a fairly graphic-intensive game
<8> Excess of 110C
<10> what problems?
<8> Hanging and artifacting. No crashes
<10> the fan works?
<8> But without the games I get no problems, it's just really hot
<8> Yeah fan works from what I can tell
<10> maybe the thermal material has vanished in flame and smoke
<6> Anyone know how to build the legacy drivers for a custom kernel, that or a link to do so. I get version missmatch with the old X drivers
<10> or the fan was too small in the first place
<10> or it's just too hot there
<9> you could grab nvclock and underclock
<10> or get a new sink+fan
<10> if the card's worth it
<8> 6800GT is a nice card, but I don't use it for much anymore.. As long as it doesn't melt all over my Audigy I guess I'll just have to live with it
<10> I think new sink+fans cost around 10-20 eur
<8> Maligor: My job pays 0 eur :(
<8> But the hours are to die for
<10> you could then try to increase airflow to the card
<10> like try to make a slot or two unoccupied next to it
<6> you could also try to submerse it in non conductive oil
<10> heh
<8> [TACO]: I wanted to do that..
<6> icemouse: only fun part is the cables
<8> It does have an empty slot next to it, that's why I'm so baffled
<6> icemouse: you would need to buy cable extensions to extend the ports to the top or back or the case
<8> That or get oily
<6> do you always want to be oily, and have removable devices oily?
<8> [TACO]: Real men don't mind getting oily, baby
<6> icemouse: yeah, but women don't like men to have parts of themselves oily
<8> Or do they?
<6> not their arms they don't
<6> maybe somewhere else
<6> to them its all or nothing
<8> Well I don't think either of us have to worry about such a thing anyways
<10> real men drink boiling oil for breakfast
<8> Maligor: I would, but it might cook the 27 raw eggs I drink
<6> bah
<6> still getting missmatch
<6> xorg7 is using 7174, but I am using 7182 :/
<6> and I cannot find out how to either compile 7182 for xorg7 or aquire it
<6> custom kernel btw if that matters
<6> I have the nvidia-kernel-legacy source
<6> but thats about it, make doesn't do anything at all
<10> err?
<10> you have to use 'make install'
<10> or make nvidia.ko I think
<6> damn man
<6> you did what someone else blew a gasket on
<8> ...
<6> he went on a rant about how Nvidia drivers blew
<6> then personally went ballistic on me, but I don't take internet insults serious :D
<8> They're not bad
<6> of course
<10> actually the opengl in nvidia is quite excellent
<6> but he flipped
<6> called me obtuse :P
<10> biggest issue I think is that using a dri card with a nvidia card with 3d acceleration could be very tricky
<8> Whats the compliment to a 43 degree angle?
<10> a 412 degree angle
<6> damned if I know
<8> "My, you're looking acute today" </bash.org>
<10> you mean 180-43?
<6> hrm
<6> still, X doesn't have drivers
<6> missing glx and nvidia
<10> or is it from 90
<8> [TACO]: You need nvidia-glx-legacy, too
<10> seems to be from 90, so 90-43
<6> isn't that out of date?
<8> Maligor: 90, I'm pretty sure
<6> even with Sid sources, thats strange
<6> nvm
<6> let me try again
<8> [TACO]: This problem was just solved like 5 minutes ago
<10> sid has 7182
<8> This exact problem
<10> heh
<8> 01:57 < stoned> yeah sorry amte
<8> 01:57 < stoned> I forgot to install nvidia-glx-legacy
<8> 01:57 < stoned> its good now
<6> uhhh
<8> TRUST ME
<6> lol
<6> I tried that, but it installs 7174
<10> maybe you have a slow mirror
<6> I always get nvidia-kernel-legacy-1.0.7182
<6> as a dependency
<6> apparently I need to make that
<6> but no clue where to begin
<10> using a debian kernel?
<6> nope
<6> 2.6.16 custom build
<6> I had to because the other one had rivafb built in
<10> well, I just have a dummy for it
<10> but is it debian packaged?
<6> the kernel?
<10> yes
<6> no
<6> just normal install
<10> well, you'll have to make a dummy then I guess
<6> how?
<10> install equivs
<6> done
<10> equivs-control filename
<10> and I'd do this in a seperate dir
<6> seperate directory?
<6> do not understand what you mean
<10> in a directory of it's own
<10> like mkdir nvidia-dummy; cd nvidia-dummy, yes?
<10> then edit the file you created
<6> filename = the package I'm missing?
<10> no
<10> it doesn't matter what it is
<6> ok, done
<6> now edit how?
<10> well, open it in a editor, duh
