19 Hi Gregory,
20
21 that's interesting...I am also running Linux 4.4.0 and may be, that is
22 the change, which causes the effect. Long time it has worked before
23 even with nvidia-drivers and all kernel versions.
24
25 But I have not the luck, that rebooting solve all my problems... ;)
26
27 So, may be somthing additional needs to be configured, which is new
28 with 4.4.0?
