I'll second the anti-Nvidia driver lobby. I too have had severe lockups either starting XF86 4.0 or ctl-alt-Fx'ing to a text console. My specific hardware is a 16Mb Sparkle Nvidia Vanta AGP 2x card, this on my main SuSE (sorry!) box. ================================================== Paul Sims (wulfie@wulfric7.co.uk) SpireLUG - the Chesterfield Linux User Group www.spirelug.org.uk ==================================================
