It does not, unless the module is loaded with modesetting enabled somehow. Maybe you got the vesa driver instead of nv. > I also found by experimentation that blacklisting the driver does not > work. The nouveau X server explicitly loads it. X runs modprobe without the "-b" option, so blacklisted modules that are not loaded when udev starts will be loaded now.

This means that the option works when the module is loaded by udev. Sven -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
