Hi,

Nice catch. I was going to try it, but the wise men at Ubuntu have dropped /etc/modprobe.d/options

This seems like a strange thing to do.

if this file doesn't exist anymore you can also specify the option within the boot prompt:

The kernel documentation says:
"
 Module parameters for modules that are built into the kernel image
 are specified on the kernel command line with the module name plus
 '.' plus parameter name, with '=' and value if appropriate, such as:

       usbcore.blinkenlights=1
"

So I thought: Why not also trying this with non-builtin-modules like the nvidia driver. And it works, at least for me :-) You can specify "nvidia.NVreg_UseVBios=0" into your grub or lilo configuration file where the kernel parameters have to be declared.

Kind Regards,
Steve
