Hello,
I just upgraded to lenny without any problems, except for one: I'm using the
vesa xorg driver, because using the free nv driver causes the display to
freeze after a few minutes of use (I can move the mouse, but I can't even
switch to a virtual console). I was using the non-free nvidia driver before
the upgrade, but after upgrading, X wouldn't start until after I ran...
"dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
...and added the following lines to /etc/X11/xorg.conf...
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
...(before I added that subsection, my monitor gave the "out of range" message
when X started).
I want to be able to use the free nv driver (without problems) before I even
try to get the non-free dirver working. I'm really stumped here; can anyone
help? (By the way, this is the first time I've upgraded a Debian system.)
Thanks,
Aidan
