Yes, sadly it is. Seems no one cared for this till then. It looks like a problem with libxvmc1, which is needed for 32-bit acceleration. But, installing this lib will deinstall several other applications, which is surely not wanted. It is just a dependency problem. I believe, there is a bugreport related to this, but it is months old. The best way is just to install the friver with the script from the nvidia site. Works like a charm. Hans -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
