Hi,
Recently, whenever I launched a video with totem, my screen would go black and I'd end up back at the FC17 login screen. I was using the akmod-nvidia and kmod-nvidia drivers. I switched over to VLC as my default video player and the problem seemed to be solved; however, It's now doing the same thing whenever I try to launch google chrome. The screen goes black and I end up back at the login screen. It does it in both KDE and XFCE. Has anybody else seen this?
You might find in your Xorg.0.log that it complains it couldn't load GLX
I had this too, I just had to make sure these lines were in my xorg.conf
Section "Files" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/nvidia/xorg" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules" EndSection
you might find these lines in it, and for some reason it loads the GLX driver....
ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules"

Hi,
Would that be 00-nvidia.conf by any chance? It contained the correct lines minus the font line, which I added to no avail.
xorg.conf itself only contains these lines:
# RPM Fusion - nvidia-xorg.conf # Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "nvidia" EndSection
Here's a pastebin link to my Xorg.0.log:
Thanks!
