Works here too, same config. Although, I haven't fooled around with my bios settings for a long time, so I can't tell if IRQ for vga is on or off ;-). It worked like a charm with the debian nvidia-kernel-src and glx-src. Of course, the deb's are to be compiled on your box. > Which 2.4.14 is it that you are using? The source direct from kernel.org? or > the Debian package? (I'm using direct from kernel.org) No packages, just plainly from kernel.org. Works. .14 seems to be one of the most stable kernels, lately.
