After attempting to use Debian's version which crashed when trying to run any DRI application, I returned to the same version number from Nvidia. Works fine ... until the next bootup in which case the X simply does not start up. The log reveals a nearly complete sequence, no errors. The bootup logcheck may show: Jul 2 13:10:57 d_baron kdm: :0[4689]: IO Error in XOpenDisplay Jul 2 13:10:57 d_baron kdm[4644]: X server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly Jul 2 13:10:57 d_baron kdm[4644]: Display :0 cannot be opened Jul 2 13:10:57 d_baron kdm[4644]: Unable to fire up local display :0; disabling.
I removed the Debian packages, reinstalled Nvidia's. Worked fine but next bootup, the same thing. In both cases Nvidia's reinstall says the installation was "modified" (it was not, not by me). One problem brought to mind is that the two installations use different directories for their various pieces. I should "only" have Nvidia's around. Is this a bug in the most recent version? What do I do about it? (could go back to previous version which gave me no trouble at all but that was before installing Debian's).
