The last time I booted to nv, it took me a week to get all the crap fixed that it overwrote trying to fit the default screens I use while trying to make them fit in an 800x600 window. I run 1600x1200, on either an ati card (but the radeon driver quit supporting the r280 chipset according to boot messages, the main reason I bought this nvidia card) or on an older nvidia card that nv was quite happy with. That card went belly up and took the motherboard with it 2 years ago though. Did you miss the comment that it works with a 2.6.21ish kernel? Everything else being equal. I will boot to one of them later tonight and test it to make sure its not some update to kde though, and let the list know. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
