This will check if direct rendering is enabled. To test your video card run the glxinfo program, which is part of the mesa-progs package. Root # usermod -a -G video myusername Testing your Video Card This can be done by using vigr or via the command-line as follows: Please make sure that any non-root user is part of the video group. While many video drivers (those that are part of xorg-x11) do not require users to be part of the video group for hardware acceleration, the NVIDIA drivers definitely do require this. When the installation is complete run nvidia-modprobe module to manually load kernel modules to begin testing. Installing the driver with the gtk use flags will also provide media-video/nvidia-settings which is a graphical tool for monitoring and various settings for your video card When installing the proprietary NVIDIA drivers, it is a good practice to first blacklist the Open Source nouveau drivers so they do not load automatically and interfere with the official NVIDIA drivers. The name of the package for these drivers is x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers, and in Funtoo Linux 1.4 and later there is an additional x11-drivers/nvidia-kernel-modules package which includes the necessary kernel modules (in 1.3 and earlier, these kernel modules are included in the main nvidia-drivers package.)Īlso note that there is an Open Source driver for NVIDIA graphics cards: x11-drivers/xf86-video-nouveau.
