Recently, the nvidia driver started causing my kernel to crash consistently, so I decided to move to the non-glx enabled NV driver. Whenever that driver starts using the SAME config as the one used for the nvidia driver, the screen goes blank with "unsupported resolution" but you can hear the gui initializing in the background. I'm using the DVI port on the Geforce (it has dual DVI), and I know for a fact that the horizontal and vertical refresh rates are to the spec (74.9, 59.9 respectively). -Jason ________________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned for all viruses by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
