well, not alternate driver, just nvidia, as in the NOT-FREE driver. I have 
been using sgfxi to install my drivers, the last few upgrades. But there 
hasn't been an upgrade in a while, at least I don't remember one messing up 
my video setup.
But that is good to know, thanks! Do you run gnome or KDE? just curious, in 
squeeze is KDE changed to KDE4 ? my wife still runs KDE3 and it would be a 
real shock for her to have to switch to KDE4.. I run gnome myself.
