Xorg in Lenny now does a lot of automatic configuration and will usually detect the correct driver, but in this particular case it doesn't. Just make sure you have the nvidia-glx package (or nvidia-glx-legacy, depending on your chip--see the package descriptions) installed and you will need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add a line Driver "nvidia" in the "Device" section. It might work without it (haven't tested myself) if you don't have the xserver-xorg-video-nv package, though I prefer to keep it installed, just in case nvidia is making trouble. Such precautions are usually not necessary on stable (which lenny is very close to). Regards, Andrei -- If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. (Albert Einstein)
