And I had to tell the whole story too, before `sudo modprobe -r nvidia' I did $ lsmod | grep nvidia to see what modules may use nvidia. If there are such modules I have to unload them first and nvidia after. Of course all this will work if modules can be unloaded, sometimes `modprobe' "don't" work, then you have to reboot. --- WBR, Vladimir Lomov -- FORCE YOURSELF TO RELAX!
