+2. I tried ( again) to do it the Debian way, and after I installed all the packages, ran all those command-lines, rebooted, I was ( again) met with the same text-based login prompt & GDM wouldn't start. So I ( yet again) removed all the nvidia packages, reran sgfxi -c, rebooted....ahhhh.. back to my NVIDIA driver. what I have never understood, is why, when my video driver breaks, it also breaks my network. Every time I boot up & GDM doesn't start, my network is broken too. -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user # 367800 Registered Ubuntu User #12459 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
