I am pleased to report the success of Envy in resolving my ongoing issue
with an nvidia driver. Would recommend anyone with nvidia problems give
it a go.

Friday, then leaving it for the weekend, I came back to find the old
pr
Ta. I'll update the work laptop.

Hi, what might be the problem with this (the most recent backup)
xorg.conf file? Related to the NVIDIA driver kinda not loading and not
being able to startx?

boots to a graphical login.
system settings -> restricted drivers previously showed "NVIDIA
accelerated graphics drivers" as "in use", and now shows "not in use".
