I've got an Nvidia GeForce4 MMX440, which worked OK until 8.10, when special effects stopped. I tried the new driver but had problems, so I've managed without special effects. I was using 96.45.07 - I saw that .09 was supposed to be OK, and it's in the "normal" repositories (ie not beta, or development etc.) so I tried it.
However it only allowed up to 800x600 resolution, ugh! So I removed it, now I'm using generic - which looks like Win98, double-ugh. I've been reading up all the info, but it's a bit beyond my experience. If I reinstall .09, can I use nvidia-xconfig to get higher resolution? I don't want to break it more than I have. Or can I get 96.45.07 back and manage without special effects? I need to start saving for a more modern graphics card. :) TIA Dianne -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
