Another problem in slackware is not able to run OpenGL automatically. To activate the NVIDIA graphics card, you need to download the driver on www.nvidia.com.
Save flie 'NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6111.pkg1.run' in your directory.
Remember, before starting the installation you should disable the X Window first.
The trick, you have to know pid number X Window. Run the command:
#ps ax | grep kdm
2116 ? S 0:00 /opt/kde/bin/kdm_greet
Then, shut down pid number :
#kill 2116
Then enter the directory where you save the driver. Assume we store them in / usr / local /
Run the command:
#cd /usr/local/Nvidia-6111/
#./Nvidia-linux-x86-1.0-6111.pkgl.run
To enable it, edit the file / etc/X11/xorg.conf. On line 401, replace the word vesa with nvidia.
Section "Device"
Identifier "VESA Framebuffer"
Driver "nvidia" #vesa is being replaced by nvidia
#Videoram 4096
#Insert Clock Lines here if aprotiate
End Section
