The nouveau driver is a bit buggy, one of the most annoying bugs for me: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=640464 And I wonder whether http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=689514 is related. Both problems are 100% reproducible on my two machines (both having a Nvidia card and the nouveau driver from Debian/unstable). Unfortunately it is not possible to try the nv driver on a recent system. -- Vincent Lefèvre <[email protected]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
