--> nouveau is loaded lspci -knn shows that <--
loaded,maybe, but is the driver used? - there should be a line like
Kernel driver in use: nvidia
Kernel modules: nouveau, nvidia
[obviously I use the nvidia driver]
If not, the driver isn't used.Check xorg.log for 'EE'
--> I have (only) Xf86-video-nouveau installed on my system <--
How about this one:
xf86-video-nv driver
https://www.x.org/releases/current/doc/ ... nv.4.xhtml
Have you ever gotten a recent Linux to work with this historic hardware?

I am late to the party, still:
* here means: all files and folders but hidden ones.
Hidden ones are the special folders of "." and "..", and of course all standard hidden files and folders.
Usually you find lots of those in your user's ~ directory: (shortened output; you not need the full output to get what I mean)
Code: Select all
guest@porteus:/$ cd
guest@porteus:~$ ls -ld .??*
-rw------- 1 guest users 52 Dec 2 17:44 .Xauthority
-rw-r--r-- 1 guest users 1210 Dec 27 2020 .bashrc
drwxr-xr-x 10 guest users 180 Dec 6 18:40 .cache
drwxr-xr-x 25 guest users 400 Dec 20 05:54 .config
-rwxr-xr-x 1 guest users 355 Dec 16 2017 .gtkrc-2.0
drwxr-xr-x 4 guest users 60 Dec 28 2020 .local
-rw-r--r-- 1 guest users 15203 Dec 20 14:17 .xfce4-session.verbose-log
Code: Select all
rm -r /var/usm/slacky/* /var/usm/slacky/.??*
Because .* would also be valid for the special folders of "." and ".." - and these we do not want to remove. Usually the file system would not let them be removed anyway:
Code: Select all
guest@porteus:~$ mkdir /tmp/TESTDIR
guest@porteus:~$ cd /tmp/TESTDIR
guest@porteus:/tmp/TESTDIR$ ls -la
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 guest users 40 Dec 20 19:59 .
drwxrwxrwt 16 root root 420 Dec 20 19:59 ..
guest@porteus:/tmp/TESTDIR$ rm -r .
rm: refusing to remove '.' or '..' directory: skipping '.'
guest@porteus:/tmp/TESTDIR$ echo $?
1
Cheers!

FYI Nothing special in the /var/usm/slacky/ folder Rava.
Code: Select all
guest@porteus:~$ ls -la /var/usm/slacky/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 88 Nov 1 00:01 ./
drwxr-xr-x 12 root root 171 Nov 1 00:00 ../
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Nov 1 00:01 CHECKSUMS.md5
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Nov 1 00:01 LIBS.TXT
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Nov 1 00:01 OPTIFEST
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Nov 1 00:01 PACKAGES.TXT
guest@porteus:~$ ls -ld /var/usm/slacky/.??*
/bin/ls: cannot access '/var/usm/slacky/.??*': No such file or directory
guest@porteus:~$

Seems you missed that part:
You understand what "it's just as example" means?

Do you understand what answering a question in a thread means?
But this is getting off-topic and quite silly so I stop there, no more replies from me about any of that in here. Rava out.
Cheers!
