If this does not work, you may try the drivers from the nvidia site directly. Before installiing this, get rid of all nvidia packages (i.e. apt- get --purge remove nvidia-*). Check before saying "y", that no other unwanted packages are iremoved. > Anybody see the issues described here: http://rglinuxtech.com/?p=1750 > <http://rglinuxtech.com/?p=1750> ? Hope this helps. If NOT, then you might try to run the nouveau driver. It is running fine, however, I prefer the proprietrary one, as I need it for my flightsim (X-Plane). > > Cheers! > -- > Boyan Penkov > www.boyanpenkov.com Good luck! Hans
