The second gives: --------------- bash.2[~]: lsmod | grep -i nouveau nouveau 989091 3 i2c_algo_bit 13257 1 nouveau drm_kms_helper 50210 1 nouveau ttm 80402 1 nouveau mxm_wmi 12865 1 nouveau drm 272504 5 ttm,drm_kms_helper,nouveau i2c_core 34242 5 drm,i2c_i801,drm_kms_helper,i2c_algo_bit,nouveau video 19052 2 nouveau,asus_wmi wmi 18697 3 mxm_wmi,nouveau,asus_wmi bash.3[~]: --------------- That confirms my system is using nouveau. > If you decide you want to try the > nVidia binary driver, then you'll need to install it.
