xorg attached I hope - if not I'll post it
it's the one I was using when I had the card - pretty sure that when I
had the card I was caught up in all that Michael alludes to - I know I
had to use proposed at the time to get it.
I looked at my nvidia thread - I think that in the end I did a clean
install and it worked for me,
this was the issue I had with it to start with - but that was when the
driver was beta still

Michael, Kev,
Thanks for your comments and pointing me to the bug report.
I am using Intrepid 32 bit. The bug report mentions a number of
xorg.conf tweaks so that could be it. I would be interested to see your
xorg.conf, Kev. The following comes up a lot:
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
There was a warning about a missing section in xorg.conf when I
activated the driver so that may be it.
Thanks again (I do miss compiz!),
Steve

Yes I have,
What version of Ubuntu are you running on the second PC ?
There were problems with Intrepid because of the new Xorg server and
nvidia not having released a driver that was compatiable with it,
though this is mostly resolved now:

I have two Ubuntu systems, this one using an Nvidia 8400 quite
successfully and anther one which is only used for my Amateur
Radio
activities.
The second PC has an Nvidia MX440 in an AGP slot. The 2D nv
driver works
OK but I would like to be able to run programs using OpenGL.
To this end
I downloaded the version 96 driver from the repository and
activated it.
I then found that the programs I run under Wine had their menu
text
scrambled and when I enabled desktop effects pop-up windows
and
Screenlets were blank. I have now deactivated it.
Has anybody managed to get 3D working with this card?
Steve, Bracknell
