Hi there my name is Viktor Soderqvist My problem here is most probably related to nVIDIAs drivers, but I thought I would report it to you anyway; what happens (or happened) is: I installed linux (Mandrake 9.1, KDE as window manager) -> Installed nVIDIAs newest drivers -> started X, everything worked fine -> rebooted a few times and everything is still working fine ... Then just one day: XFree86 Version 4.3.0 Release Date: 27 February 2003 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.6 Build Operating System: Linux 2.4.21-0.13mdksmp i686 [ELF] Build Date: 12 March 2003 Before reporting problems, check http://www.XFree86.Org/ to make sure that you have the latest version.

This can be found in the log file "/var/log/XFree86.0.log". Please report problems to xfree86@xxxxxxxxxxxx The mystic thing here is that it _worked several times_ and then just BAM, this happens. What is the problem, if you know? I figure it's something with nVIDIAs drivers but why does this happen now and not before?
