I still cannot get X to start with the nvidia drivers. However, I did take |
| 2 |
(someones?) suggestion and tried both the "vesa" and "nv" drivers and they |
| 3 |
both "work". I say "work" because with 'vesa', I get a HUGE (i.e. low rez) |
| 4 |
screen = unuseable. And with the 'nv' I get the right resolution 1600x1200, |
| 5 |
but I get horrible frame-rates (glxgears). |

I tried to turn off the RenderAccel option with 'nvidia' but no joy. |
