Hi Stefano, Please try adding Option "ModeValidation" "NoXServerModes" to the Screen section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf It's an Nvidia-only option documented in /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx/README.txt.gz (Please keep the Debian bug CC'd in replies) Regards, Steve -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Hi Stefano, Does the "einstein" package do the same when run in full-screen mode? Any error messages on your monitor (if it has a status panel separate to the screen)? I have this with several full-screen games, combined with a GeForce 6600, LG LCD monitor and the Nvidia driver. The card is auto-detecting a video mode that my monitor doesn't support, chosing 800x600 with too high a refresh rate, and the monitor's protection mechanism ignores the input signal. I haven't looked in to whether the fault is in the card, the monitor or the driver. Full-screen games that are in a different size than 800x600 work fine for me. Does that match what's happening for you? Regards, Steve -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Package: extremetuxracer Version: 0.4-2 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable If I try to star etracer I get a black screen. The desktop is frozen. I must restart the X-server again to do anything. Maybe the problem is in the 3D-acceleration. My graphic card is a nvidia GeForce 6200.
