Re: [gentoo-amd64] Gentoo crashing?

[Peter Davoust]

Ok, I thought I had turned it to plain text, but gmail is obsessive
about these things. Ok, so I haven't tried with acpi off. One
interesting development is that I've been trying to get my nvidia
graphics card working (no luck, by the way), and when I logon, startx
(doesn't work), then kill x, edit the config and try to start it
again, it crashes, sure thing. So if nothing else that establishes a
point where it will definately crash and I can reproduce the error.
Other than that I'm clueless.
