Yes, that's what occurred to me, as I was mentally going down the list |
| 11 |
of things to do, to arrive at congruency between the two systems.... |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
One more difference: |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200] |
| 16 |
x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers |
| 17 |
Installed versions: 173.14.05 |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
versus |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 MX/MX 400] |
| 22 |
x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers |
| 23 |
Installed versions: 96.43.05 |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
So some provisions have to be made, as the older card is barely supported |
| 26 |
any more. I do need X11 to run JFFNMS on these systems. Or maybe I'll |
| 27 |
just pick up either another FX5200 or a pair of newer (cheap) |
| 28 |
video cards so that hardware matches too.....? |
