You are not logged in.
Your systems are crashing because you have nvidia and nouveau loading at the same time.
Check /etc/rcS.conf and remove nouveau from LOAD_MODULES= if it's there.
tazhw may be loading it,you can try to blacklist nouveau,or delete nouveau.

Ok, thanks for the instruction - but tomorrow morning, sorry. Feedback immediate, as usual...

Ok, I removed /lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau.ko.gz, renamed it to ../nouveau.k.old.gz
And I changed the /etc/rcS in that particular line. Plus: in /etc/modprobe.conf/ I added a file with one line ,,blacklist nouveau".
Nevertheless:
,,Something" during the bootprocess wrote into the rcS-file and added the phrase ,,nouveau ,", with the comma, in the module loading line.
Therefore ,,tazhw detect-pci" gave a result:
module nvidia was loaded, but an error line ,,missing module nouveau" is in there.
Therefor the Xorg.0.log showed:

So it did not work - yet. Now I try to find the culprit.

I guess I have the culprit now. Look into the attached log file.
Most likely this ,,something" sits in /usr/lib/X11/modules/drivers - something there tries to load nv in the boot process and overwrites the changes rcS-file.

Finally I got it. The point is:
after having installed your package one must manually remove the packages xorg-xf86-video-nv and xorg-f86-video-vesa!
Otherwise the trouble occurs, that I showd here in details.
(With Slitaz 3.0 it happened automatically! There is a message: do you want to remove.... and then one clicks: y !)
Now it runs - and I will have a cup of coffee! ;-)
And take my notice that I am grateful to all of you for your patience, which was not second to mine...
(Please believe me: on some screens like the one I have with 1280x1024 resolution this fu... proprietary thing is necessary, while on a laptop with 1400 or 1600 one cannot see the difference)

Hey, good job michaelbischof!! :-) Really glad you made it.
Would you mind giving here (after your coffee...) a short step by step guide to successfully install nvidia driver?
Thanks for sharing.
Cheers.

,,Would you mind giving here (after your coffee...) a short step by step guide to successfully install nvidia driver?"
Of course not. This is the meaning of communication.
1. Download the driver that mojo offered here
2. cd to the directory where it is
3. tazpkg install <nvidia...tazpkg>
4. tazpkg remove xorg-xf86-video-nv
5. tazpkg remove xorg-xf86-video-vesa
6. close the screen, get to be root - no Xserver should run!
7. Check: tazhw detect-pci - the module nvidia must be loaded. If not: depmod -a , check again.
8. /etc/init.d/slim start
9. startx
That's it. On 3.0 the installation process automatically removes nv and vesa - and that's the point.
(I did this now on slitaz-core, later I check it with slitaz-cooking iso's that I have here).
In case of trouble check /etc/rcS: there should be under ,,Load modules" only nvidia
Feed back here is welcome!

I have to ask. Does blacklisting work properly in rolling's busybox now?
Offline
Puh, difficult:
I made a file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist (after I had installed nvidia). Calling: blacklist nouveau
Plus: I had removed the nouveau module manually.
Plus: in /etc/rcS I had removed nouveau.
(Then I booted and at that time busybox was working)
So if blacklisting worked or not I really cannot say for sure.
In addition: I try to start kompozer and installed the dev-toolchain. I was asked if I want to substitute busybox with bash. I said ,,yes".
(I have a difficult problem in running kompozer. When I try it
tux@slitaz:~/kompozer$ ./kompozer-bin
./kompozer-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libxpcom_core.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
tux@slitaz:~/kompozer$ ./kompozer
<= Hopefully it was no mistake to substitute?

Thank you, Mojo,
but the error continues after having installed thunderbird.
tux@slitaz:~$ cd /home/tux/bin/kompozer
tux@slitaz:~/bin/kompozer$ ./kompozer
tux@slitaz:~/bin/kompozer$ ./kompozer-bin
./kompozer-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libxpcom_core.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
tux@slitaz:~/bin/kompozer$ sh mozilla-xremote-client
mozilla-xremote-client: line 1: syntax error: unexpected "("
tux@slitaz:~/bin/kompozer$ sh run-mozilla.sh
run-mozilla.sh: Cannot execute .
tux@slitaz:~/bin/kompozer$ ./run-mozilla.sh
run-mozilla.sh: Cannot execute .
As you should know: this is a program with static dependencies. So in the directory ../kompozer there is libxpcom_compat.so
tux@slitaz:~/bin/kompozer$ ldd kompozer
When I run 'ldd kompozer' I get this:
kompozer:
./kompozer: error while loading shared libraries: ./kompozer: invalid ELF header
(I am on slitaz-core)

From January 2011:

Do you have bash installed ? Some scripts don't work with busybox ash.
Offline
What I shame to be remembered like that! ;-)
Yes, I installed bash and the necessary tools for ldconfig. And I copied kompozer to /usr/lib.
Now I am here:
root@slitaz:/usr/lib/kompozer# tazpkg get-install nss
nss-3.12.9 package is already installed. You can
use the --forced option to force installation or remove it and reinstall.
root@slitaz:/usr/lib/kompozer# /usr/lib/kompozer/kompozer-bin
/usr/lib/kompozer/kompozer-bin: /usr/lib/libnss3.so: version `NSS_3.12.10' not found (required by /usr/lib/libxul.so)
One last trick necesary? If yes: which one?
Offline
Just to make it complete:
on Slitaz 3.0 it functions out the box.
michael@slitaz:~/Desktop.inhalte/kompozer$ ./kompozer
(process:2307): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
(kompozer-bin:2307): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_x11_xatom_to_atom_for_display: assertion `xatom != None' failed
In spite of this error messages it opens and it functions. Hmmh...

Hello,
I''m close, but when i run startx I get following error:
"Illegal instruction at address 0xb5dec9b1"

Any support is appreciated.
