Works perfectly.
Hmm, what driver version? The earlier versions used to have a patch I wrote to get the support and then they did their own code. The last two or so releases however did not support this as far as I know (could be wrong, but do not look that way .. or with 2.6.11/12+ and 1.0.7* at least): ----- lycan ~ # grep nvidia /dev/.udevdb/* lycan ~ # bzcat /lib64/udev-state/devices.tar.bz2 | tar -t nvidiactl nvidia0 lycan ~ # ----- Regards, -- Martin Schlemmer Gentoo Linux Developer, Desktop/System Team Developer Cape Town, South Africa
