Yeah, I knew it didn't fix nvidia. I know it's not perfect, but I have seen user's on bugzilla with positive results from it, so when I saw this code block (whilst editing something else) it seemed like it might fix some situations, and I can't see any real downsides. - David ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
