I tried forcing the "nouveau" driver in xorg.conf it spit out some kind of error, although I'm not sure it was with the card in particular. I think it said something about DRM. (Which I took to be the Direct Rendering Manager, not Digital Restrictions Management.) (I didn't save the message, unfortunately.) The VESA driver did work. The Bluetooth device also appeared to be recognized, so the problem did go away with this newer kernel. But I need the X server more than I need the Bluetooth device. :) NVidia can be such a pain in the butt. :-p -- Ben _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
