no X after todays update [Solved]

[HansWurst]

X fails starting after todays updates. Trying to start it manually it says. NVIDIA: No displays found for configuration. The new Kernel 2.6.29 is installed plus the apropriate NVIDIA drivers. Both are correctly eselected.

Have a look at this
viewtopic.php?f=86&t=17259#p99021

What you need to do is as root
equo install nvidia-driver

Drivers have been updated to 180.60
Have fun

I did that.
Kernel and Nvidia 180.60r1 drivers are correctly installed. I also did equo conf update. It says no Nvidia-kernel-module was found. rc-update doesnt show any nvidia-modules. tried to reinstall nvidia drivers. no change.
By the way. Is there a command that lists the services which COULD be added in rc-update?

[joeoden]

What is the output of
uname -r
eselect kernel list
eselect opengl list

nvidia drivers not listed in my rc-update show, and GUI is working

Is there a command that lists the services which COULD be added in rc-update?

RC-UPDATE(8) System Manager's Manual RC-UPDATE(8)

NAME
rc-update — add and remove services to and from a runlevel

SYNOPSIS
rc-update add service [runlevel ...]
rc-update delete service [runlevel ...]
rc-update [-u, --update] [-v, --verbose] show [runlevel ...]

DESCRIPTION
OpenRC uses named runlevels. Rather than editing some obscure file or
managing a directory of symlinks, rc-update exists to quickly add or
delete services to and from from different runlevels. All services must
reside in the /etc/init.d or /usr/local/etc/init.d directories. They must
also conform to the OpenRC runscript standard.

add service Add the service to the runlevel or the current
one if none given. Services added to the boot
runlevel must exist in /etc/init.d.

delete service Delete the service from the runlevel or the cur‐
rent one if none given.

show Show all enabled services and the runlevels they
belong to. If you specify runlevels to show,
then only those will be included in the output.

-v, --verbose Show all services.

-u, --update Forces an update of the dependency tree cache.
This may be needed in the even of clock skew (a
file in /etc is newer than the system clock).

At me the same problem, all that here is written yet has not helped, I look forward your councils

[sjieke]

Please provide the info that 'joeoden' requested

uname -r
eselect kernel list
eselect opengl list

The output of 'equo search nvidia-drivers' could also be usefull to verify which driver version is installed...

I had the same problem this morning and reinstalling the driver and nvidia-settings works for me. The driver is 180.53 not 180.60r1..

[KelloggsFrosties]

Had the same problem today. Nvidia-drivers were installed in the right version fitting the kernel, but module was not found. Running depmod fixed it.
