As followup to my post on Nouveau, which I would prefer using, the

Interesting. For me, it's <ctrl>-<alt>-<F1>.

I am using Xorg from Sid and 2.6.32.5 linux-image from Sid. Is there
some way
Does that mean you're running a mixed Testing/Sid system?
I guess so.
to rectify this, i.e. some console setup script I can run in local rc or
such?
Even though the nvidia driver in Sid is showing it's age, the
GeForce 6200 is pretty old, so it "should" work, and does w/ my 7300SE.
I installed nvidia's version (which should have the same code).
Would I be better off with the Debian package anyway? (Would at least avoid
that .so being hit with each xorg upgrade unless I divert it.)
what nvidia driver did you install?
