[ATrpms-users] GLX problem when loading mythtv

[Anders Hedegård]

Hi Tim

Yes off course, its just me remembering things wrong...

yum install nvidia-graphics8774-kmdl-$(uname -r)
yum install nvidia-graphics8774

The drivers are installed properly (or maybe not quite), but the GLX device
won't load.
