Okay, I was getting some problems with games segfaulting on me, so I decided
to use the latest Nvidia drivers instead of the default ones installed with
v9.0.
I did the usual tarball route, then make, then looking at XF86Config-4, which
looked like was already set from the stock install.
So...I get the splash screen, the games work (but I've not played them long
enough to see if they segfault yet), but now....all of my screensavers that
use 3D acceleration don't work. I can go into the Control Center, then Look
'n Feel, then screensavers....and the hard drive thrashes furiously, mouse
goes jerky, and the screensaver never shows up in the preview box. Also, if I
let one of the screensavers set until it kicks in on my desktop, X crashes
back out the console.
I'm sure some link/connection got destroyed when I upgraded the drivers
(although I've never had this happen before), so has anyone had this happen
and know how to fix it?
PS I did remove the kdeartwork package for the screensavers and reinstall it.
It made no difference.
Thanks all.
