Re: RC3 problem with X (nv driver)

Okay, replaying to my self.

I've now on F8 with all updates as of 8/11.
I've tried it on another nvidia laptop with a "G72M [GeForce Go 7400]"
and get the same result. The first laptop had an "Quadro NVS 110M /
GeForce Go 7300"
Here is an image how the screen looks like when I startx:

Any hints on how to debug this would be cool. I've tried to downgrade
xserver to the in F7updates but I still get the same problem.  Perhaps
its not the driver it self that is the problem!?!

Vesa driver works okay on both laptops, albeit with wrong resoultion
