Also, doing # modprobe nv, > it answers "FATAL: Module nv not found." This is a misunderstanding: The modprobe command is used to load kernel modules; there is no kernel module called "nv". The xorg driver module called "nv" should be loaded automatically when xorg is started and a supported graphics card is detected. You posted the relevant line from the xorg log earlier which suggests that the module is loaded without problems. -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
