I don't have an incantation for either available > right off hand, though. debian packaged nvidia driver gave the solution after i managed to compile it wouldn't load becouse of gcc differences. and the debian packaged nvidia driver was the only one who told that kernel was built with gcc-3.3, so i had to apt-get it and compile modules with it again, with that nvidia's works fine, so i didn't compile again debian's. it's resolved now, anyways, thanx for your attention. :) > > -- > David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ > "Theoretical politics is interesting.
