I am not new to the linux way of things but I am new to the debain way of things and I have some questions that need to be answered. To start, I need to ket rid of nouveau as it's screwing with uvesafb (produces an 'Error -22'). I added it to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf but it's still being loaded. Nouveau is also only using the top-left quarter of my laptop's display and it's rather annoying. Once I can get rid of Nouveau I can then work on getting my nvidia driver loaded and I can use X ... as it stans nouveau is also not working correctly with X ... I get a very corrupt display but otherwise functional, just very hard to see.
P.S. I tried hitting freenode/#debian but they were utterly useless in trying to actually help, people there were actually rather rude to me, I was told more then once to search google (which btw offered no real solutions). -- Did you know...
