8 If you are not doing the script updates, then you are not running a stable system. Please
9 do all the script updates, then reboot your system.

15 Seems the driver you are running doesn't know which chip is on the Gfx card.
16 Perhaps you should add ~x86 to nvidia-kernel and nvidia-glx.

18 FWIW - I have to restart X - ^ALTDEL, about 3 times to get a visible display with
19 the nvidia driver - 7667, but that's due to the 6600GT I'm running. Maybe
20 they'll get a new bios out for it. But once started it runs fine at 1280x1024.
21 I even get 3D acceleration.
