Did you manually set it in your xorg.conf? Like so: |
27 |
|
28 |
Section "Device" |
29 |
|
30 |
Identifier "Nvidia" |
31 |
Driver "nvidia" |
32 |
|
33 |
Option "NoLogo" "true" |
34 |
|
35 |
EndSection |
36 |
|
37 |
If you don't it defaults to whatever other driver you have that works with |
38 |
the hardware (nv or VESA). I noticed that it does that after I tried to remove |
39 |
my xorg.conf (it works just fine, I only have to leave the above in it for X to |
40 |
work). |

Man, I'm sorry you keep having these upgrade problems. I can imagine the |
45 |
frustration this would cause. |
