Installation and License Questions / Re: VNL also closes down directly in the lastest version atk-10.8.2-linux64
« on: October 12, 2010, 17:16 »
Today I found out the vendor-specific drivers for my graphics card in the vendor-specific CD. It is : /media/Setup/Matrox/G200e/Linux/xorg-x11-drv-mga-1.4.2-8.el5.x86_64.rpm, then I installed it:
. After that, I wanted to update the driver, but it said that I had installed the newer version of it in my server before:
rpm -Uvh xorg-x11-drv-mga-1.4.2-8.el5.x86_64.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
package xorg-x11-drv-mga-1.4.2-10.el5.x86_64 (which is newer than xorg-x11-drv-mga-1.4.2-8.el5.x86_64) is already installed
package xorg-x11-drv-mga-1.4.2-8.el5.x86_64 is already installed
Oh. That is say, I had installed the vendor-specific drivers (xorg-x11-drv-mga-1.4.2-10.el5.x86_64 ) for my graphics card before I came to the problem of installing atk10.8.2.
Is the xorg-x11-drv-mga-1.4.2-10.el5.x86_64 driver still too old and I have to update it again (where can I download the newer one?) ? Do I still need to update the the latest MESA drivers? What should I do then?Thanks.
