This happened because nvidia-glx from testing is incompatible with xorg 6.9. You can install the nvidia or nvidia.*-legacy packages from unstable, depending on whether you have a card that is only supported by the legacy driver (GeForce 2 or older) or e newer card. > I commented "nvidia" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf - Section "Device" - > line "Driver", uncommented "nv" in the following line, and rebooted, > and X worked normal again.

This could have several reasons. First you should run xdpyinfo | grep dim and check if the screen size X thinks you are using is correct. If not, add DisplaySize width height #width and height in mm to the monitor section of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and restart X. After that at least the dpi value should be correct. If you still have problems, make sure xfonts.*-transcoded is installed. You probably also want to use AntiAliasing so smoothen the edges of your fonts. How you activate it depends on which window manager/desktop environment you use. best regards Andreas Janssen -- Andreas Janssen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP-Key-ID: 0xDC801674 ICQ #17079270 Registered Linux User #267976 http://www.andreas-janssen.de/debian-tipps-sarge.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
