i guess your nvidia card is an old one (lspci). i use a gf 2ti and there are |
| 21 |
some issues with the new kernelversions and the nvidia driver (read |
| 22 |
about that on nvidia.com) |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
at least i got all working fine: |
| 25 |
Linux violet 2.6.9-gentoo-r9 #2 |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
and the 6626 nvidia driver (i think thats the right version, but iam |
| 28 |
not sure) as binary/installer from nvidia.com. |

So long |
