seeing. |

NO! The newer drivers build but warn of MTRR support lacking on my card. Funny |
| 32 |
I thought that it was there. It's a gforce4 ti 4200. |
| 33 |
I had to revert to nvidia-drivers-1.0.9639. I guess the drivers got updated in |
| 34 |
a previous update and I missed the warnings. Funny it worked for over a week. |
