[SOLVED] NVIDIA with VDPAU on Corepure 5.x

(1/3) > >>

Hi all,

With your help I was able to get this same hardware working with VDPAU on Core 4.x last year ((http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,14791.msg84953.html#msg84953).  However after reading a ton of forums/wikis and unsuccessfully trying several options, I am unsure of what to even keep pursuing.

I am totally willing to do all the work and compile whatever is needed, I just need some direction on what the TinyCore gurus would pursue so I don't spend many more hours running down the wrong trail!

Any recommendations?

* Compile xf86-video-nv? (I get a missing package 'dri' error.  But I'm not even sure this will work for hardware accel, and NVidia stopped supporting it?)
 
* Compile NVIDIA proprietary drivers? (Tried NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-331.67.run and NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-304.121.run, both give me a "./nvidia-installer: not found" error despite the fact that if I run them with the "-x" flag there is a file named nvidia-installer in the extracted directory.)
 
* Would nvidia-glx work with Xorg-7.7?  Should I try and compile it?
I am hoping that I am just missing something obvious!

I've compiled nvidia x86 and x86_64 proprietary drivers v319.49 with VDPAU support for VC1, MPEG1+2, H264.  With OpenGL/GFX v1.4

Only thing, is best if you setup an Xorg config file first then install nvidia drivers.

I use Xorg-7.7-3d

Sorry, I've been procrastinating on this for some time.  Give me a few days and ill prep an extension for you to test

No need to apologize, whatsoever - thanks so much for the help!
