switch to nouveau

[franck]

Hi everyone
I had sabayon on my laptop last year, but I decided to uninstall it. Now I'm giving it another try, but I'd like to know how to know wich graphical driver i've got now (which should be nvidia driver) , and install the nouveau driver if they're not. How should I do this?

To find out which driver you are using:

Code: Select all

 lsmod | grep -e nvidia -e nouveau

Here is a guide to switch to nouveau: http://forum.sabayon.org/viewtopic.php? ... au#p131446

Perhaps you can confirm if it's a valid guide and add it to the wiki?


-Good luck.

Thanks!! It worked
there was just a problem, because startx didn't start so I had to type in shell "sudo eselect opengl set xorg-x11"

I have nouveau in one of my machines, it works.
