Hi,
Googled around and found a guy with similar problems.
Via USB 2.0 controller, with ehci-hcd hung with 2.6 though.
He had recently upgraded his BIOS, started after that..
Any similarities
prolly something for someone more experienced to talk bout..

Short answer: to use the nVidia proprietary X driver, you need on your

so because part of what the nVidia package provides is a customized

This (obviously) doesn't work. What it is, is the nvidia driver has two
parts; a kernel module (the nvidia.ko file), and a X driver. When you run
the installer from nvidia's website, they should install to the correct
locations - you shouldn't need to move any files (the correct locations are
