How to add an NVidia Linux .run package to slacko646.3.2
Posted: Sat 29 Apr 2017, 16:59
The "unaccelerated driver" in slacko646.3.2 works, but I am trying to improve my frame rate in Minecraft. After switching to "simple NV driver", Minecraft crashes with this error:
"org.lwjgl.LWJGLException: Could not init GLX...
"No OpenGL context found in the current thread."
It seems to me that I need to do this:
"org.lwjgl.LWJGLException: Could not init GLX...
"No OpenGL context found in the current thread."
It seems to me that I need to do this:
Am I thinking correctly here?1. Download the NVidia Linux package for your card;
2. Download the devx sfs file for slacko646.3.2;
3. Download the kernel sources sfs file for slacko646.3.2;
4. Enable both sfs files in the bootmanager, and reboot..
5. After rebooting, and making sure both sfs files are enabled..
6. Drop out of X to the command prompt and run the installer..
e.g. /mnt/~~~/tmp/NVidia Linux package.run
7. Let the installer do its thing, and watch for any errors..
8. When it is finished, reboot...
9. After rebooting, run xorgwizard, and choose nvidia..
Ta-da...
