View source for SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop using XGL with NVidia

===Troubleshooting===
To activate Xgl you have to follow a few aspects.
Additional Informations you find at [http://de.opensuse.org/Xgl_unter_SUSE_Linux_verwenden Xgl unter SUSE Linux verwenden] from which these instructions here were gathered.

===Download Novell NVidia Packages===
From
*[ftp://download.nvidia.com/novell/ NVidia Driver tested by Novell]
for NVidia.

Install these rpm packages.

===Download NVidia driver===
Go to your favorite nvidia website and look into the driver archives.
Download the appropriate (!) driver version according to
#your pc architecture / kernel 
#the corresponding driver version

Consider the downloaded rpm's above.

Go into a shell (''Ctrl+Alt+F1'') and switch to runlevel three:
 init 3

Then install the NVidia driver
 modprobe -r nvidia
 sh NVIDIA_XYZ.run -a -n

Using the parameter ''-a -n'' avoids the question about licence and matching online binary drivers. We don't need them because we are compiling the kernel ourselves.

Then - if everything went o.k.
 modprobe nvidia

===Configure XGL as default Desktop===
Look at
*[http://de.opensuse.org/Xgl_unter_%C3%A4lteren_Versionen_von_SUSE_Linux_verwenden XGL under older SuSE]
how to configure the sysconfig files.
Using YaSR, you have to look at the bottom in the sysconfig editor to find the appropriate field.
