I don't notice a difference, but I don't really do much that would show up. An advantage for me of the noveau driver, besides restoring the beep in an xterm, was that the console font (in a virtual terminal) is much nicer. I had tried various configurations of the console font with the nvidia driver, but it never looked good---too big and kind of fuzzy. The console font with the nouveau driver is sharp, reasonably small, and didn't require any configuration on my part. I don't use the console much, but when I have to its nice to be able to comfortably read it. -- Joe Riel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
