I don't know for sure, but it's unlikely that more than one would help
(unless you happen to change cards). I'd check with someone slightly
better informed than me though...

I've done this.  I'm just wondering, would it be useful to do it  
multiple times, or would that just produce exactly the same data?

[ubuntu-uk] renouveau - helping the nvidia driver team.

2007-02-13 Thread Pat

Could I draw your attention to a thread on the forums about the renouveau
tool.

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=357369

It seems that anyone with an nvidia card can help out the open source nvidia
driver guys by running this small application and sending the results back.

I don't know how many sets of results are useful to them, but the thread has
only been up there for a few days.
