After installing the NVIDIA graphics card driver, ThinkPad E40

My laptop is ThinkPad E40 and comes with a ATI graphics card. Now I have installed the fedora14 operating system. We all know that mplayer is usually installed for Playing videos in Linux.

However, during normal video playback, I found that mplayer often reports an error in the command line, saying that if a lib file is missing, I checked it online, it is found that this is a file required by the NVIDIA graphics card. But I am not NVIDIA graphics card, and then I went online to search, found the need to install this package nvidia-graphics185.18.31-libs-185.18.31-113.el6.i686.rpm

Then I will install the software package again. After installation, I did not restart the machine. When using mplayer, there will be no previous errors, but there will be new errors, which are related to NVIDIA graphics cards. Of course, if you are not a NVIDIA graphics card, there will certainly be problems. No matter, it does not affect the use of mplayer. The next morning, I started the machine. Wow, the text on the entire desktop was upside down. All applicationsProgramThe text in all is reversed by 180. What can I do? Now this problem is fixed. I was thinking that the change I made yesterday should be the installation of the NVIDIA driver, and the graphical interface change should be related to the graphics driver. Then I checked on the internet how to uninstall the NVIDIA driver installed yesterday.

Rpm-Qa can list all software packages.

Run the following command to uninstall the driver:

Rpm-e 'rpm-Qa | grep NVIDIA'

Then restart the machine and restore it.

That's great.

I am writing a record here today. I also want to remind all friends who use ATI graphics cards not to install NVIDIA graphics card drivers. Otherwise, there may be problems in graphics display.

No. It would be nice if there is one. Pai_^
