0 Sandro Posted August 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 Excuse me but I'm on text mode using links; for now I'm using "nouveau" drivers. But if if possible i'd like to use proprietary accelerated graphics drivers; beh however I can make various experiments. the trouble is that recompile a kernel with athlon 64x2 @2,8 GHz takes a very long time. So if there is a conseil it will be truely appreciated. Hi To All Dear Funtoo Users :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Sandro Posted August 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Thank You. When I've terminated i'll install the 304.X Thank You very much !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Sandro Posted August 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Sorry, but the nvidia-304 doesn't compile. May depend by the kernel version (I'm using 4.0.5; is too advanced ?) This is the log Thank You. __________ PS With vesa drivers the graphic works (with disabled "nouveau" in kernel and VIDEO_CARDS="vesa". PS2: with system-rescue live cd, the nouveau runs. The version of kernel of the SRCD that i've used has the 3.14.48-std454 kernel. Why experiment can i do ??? Thanks for any suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Sandro Posted August 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Another experiment failed: gentoo-sources-3.14.48 with nouveau seems to work but after few time .... KO! ... system locked. Now I'm trying to use this kernel with nvidia 340.X Excuse me for multiple posts :( PS now the 304.X has compiled with gentoo-3.14.48; contemporarely the system is compiling "mesa" and with an Athlon 64x2 there will be a lot of time. I wish tomorrow to find the solution. :rolleyes: . Otherwise i'll search for an used supported nvidia card to make my friend able to use simply this PC with the magic Funtoo :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Sandro Posted August 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Ok ok ok....... solved with nvidia-drivers-340 (but using an older kernel). For now I'm very satisfied. Thank You very much for the aid :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
