This is because the nouveau kernel module isn't in a place where modprobe expects to find it. Did you correctly install the kernel module? If not, you'll need to load nouveau.ko (and the current drm.ko, not the one that comes with your distribution). I used insmod to insert the modules. (In reply to comment #2) > I used insmod to insert the modules. > I also tried to load the modules manually before starting X and the same thing happened. |
