Poor ET performance with Linux + nvidia?

Post by bani »

prelinking may be the culprit.

on some recent linux distros (gentoo, fedora), they include a new feature known as prelinking. unfortunately the nvidia drivers are incompatible with prelinking and will fail in strange ways when prelinked.

to disable prelinking, add the nvidia drivers to the blacklist in your /etc/prelink.conf file:

Code: Select all

-b /usr/X11R6/lib{,64}/libGL*
-b /usr/lib{,64}/tls/libnvidia-tls*
-b /usr/lib{,64}/libnvidia-tls*
-b /usr/lib{,64}/libGL*
