@Alberto & Harry 256.52 appears to fix the "won't start" issue (without needing ABI ignore hints), but also appears to have performance issues. I get slowdowns and choppy 2D and 3D effects when using it. Will 256.53 help? On 10-09-01 07:01 AM, Harry wrote: > Alberto, > please build the deb pack

This bug is in need of a summary of current status. What works? What is broken? And, what's the schedule for restoring nVidia to it's 10.04 functionality. This would be a terrible regression if it makes it into beta. -- nVidia card : X won't start since 1.9 update, no screens found https://bugs.l
