Comment 11 for bug 96819

Ok, I see it now. So the is_enabled() is checking if the driver in the xorg.conf file (from "device" section) is the same as the xorg_driver, which should be true ("nvidia" for both).

So is_loaded() must be returning false, but...

Striped out the load_module_list() to just run seperately and just had it print out. "nvidia" was in the list. So checking the is_loaded() call, it checks:

return self.name in self._modules

Which should return true. So if both return true (or should), then it shouldn't ask for a restart. So one must be returning false?!?!

Well I saw your other post about checking the running X driver instead of the kernel module. I'm not sure how to do that either. There's not an X command to get the driver (far as I know), but maybe xlib (been awhile since I've been in there)? I just always use glxinfo, but that checks OpenGL (which I think should be everywhere, but...).
