Thanks for the help Daniel, but what you say hasn't fixed my problem... |
| 21 |
I had framebuffer support in the kernel config, but not the nvidia fb |
| 22 |
support, I've tried to remove it at all, but still doesn't work... the |
| 23 |
other steps you have listed have already been done. In fact if I type |
| 24 |
/etc/init.d/xdm restart after boot the driver is loaded correctly and |
| 25 |
all works... |
