short beep. I cannot alt-Fx to any other terminal and lose the terminal
I'm working in, and have to restart with ctrl-alt-del.
Setup:
I have a fresh install of Etch (AMD64 version) running on an Athlon64x2
dual-core proc. Graphics card is an EVGA-branded nVidia 8600GT.
Display is a 22" Acer LCD; I ensured the refresh rates in the
x configuration were within monitor specs.
I would start by changing the nvidia driver to the nv driver in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
