I also run an amd64 here, a plain jane K8N with an nvidia FX 5700LE (also a plain jane) and it works well here. I have never used the frame buffer with x. It's been a while since I read it but I don't think it works. Maybe disabling the frame buffer with x (you can still us FB on the console) would help. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
