OS is Mandrake 8.2 - Kernel 2.4.18-1mkdsmp i686 XFree86 Version 4.2.0 (Protocol Version 11, rev 0, vendor release 6600) dated 23 january 2002 NVidia drivers are 1.0-2880 installed from source tarball The problem occurs no matter what resolution I try but I am attempting to get the 1024x768 at 24bit working fully. Any helpfull suggestions will be greatly appreciated :-) Regards _______________________________________________ Newbie@XFree86.Org *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie
